    But amateur standout he certainly wasn't, I don't get why they have to lie with that bull****.
    This is exactly my thought. Nothing special.

    To put Novytskyi in the same sentence as AJ, Zhang or Parker is wrong. Everyone who knows anything about Boxing knows this.

    Fury vs Usyk is one of my favorite fights in Boxing right now.

    Novytskyi is not good imo. It has nothing to do with him being white.

    I think Hrgovic is a good fighter and WAYY better than Novytskyi.

    Welcome back from your hiatus. I don't bother reading or reply to Kovalev KO anymore and I suggest you do the same.

    Novitskyi is decent. Nice of you to update your opinion of him. Is he a future top 10 heavyweight?! Maybe. I'll say this, size, speed, age , and power are things he has in the spades. More so that other more accomplished amateurs. We shall see​

    Don't ever mention this guy in the same sentence as AJ, Ngannou, Zhang or Parker.

    Andrii Novytskyi fighting on the mega heavyweight card. This means he is getting good exposure and possibly will fight one of winners between AJ and Ngannou Or Zhang and Parker. I don't think he is ready for this, but money talks. Given that this is his 8th fight in a years span he is active and serious. He can be found in my top 20 heavyweight prospects with the ^^^ pointing up.

    also I think that black font you used is invisible to those of us viewing with a dark background.
    It is quite good ( the body attack ) shown in his other fights, so you are mistaken.

    His footwork and foot speed speed , ( which are very good traits of his ) combined with his range natural and balance, power and skill was too much for Juan Torres to deal with. He was what call out of the fight zone, while Novytskyi was in it. As I said I was impressed with how he won using his boxing IQ and was very relaxed in the ring. .

    The result was the fight lasted two short rounds. Stamina was not an issue. It was Juan Torres durability and chin vs. Novytskyi power and skills. The durable Toreros has ever been knocked down or out in 19 fights, so a two round win was impressive.

    It is great Novyskyi he has gotten the exposure of a mega card. He can fight the winners of this mega card in 1-2 years ( Parker? ) I think he needs a few more fights before taking that jump.

    Novytskyi​ won easily last night. It is how he won that impressed me. He doesn't look like a man who had limited experience or 10 pro fights.

    For openers his footwork / foot speed is excellent and will be a factor vs. pretty much all future opponents, including top ten ranked fighters.

    He is very relaxed in the ring which is something you don't often see in young heavyweights.

    And his head and body attack are good as is his balance.

    A heavy handed person, his power appears to be excellent. Hand speed is on the plus side.

    And he likes to land all types of punches at out range, mid rage, and not shown in this fight, up close. His height 6'6", reach estimated to be 81" and weight at 240 pounds will give him advantages over most future opponents.

    A very good prospect, he is moving up, and is very active. This is his 8th fight in a year.
