    Nigerian Heavyweight Gbenga Oloukun

    Does anybody know anything about this fellow? He has 16 straight wins, appears to have a decent amatuer backround, and seems to be in good shape [which is a bonus if you're a heavyweight]. He's only listed at around 6'1'' though. Full credit to the Eastern Europeans, but it would be nice to see someone in the mould of Ike Ibeabuchi again. The division needs a spark. David Haye has given it some excitement and publicity, but he's not durable enough to really sustain any sort of run IMO.

    Anyway, here's a picture of this guy:

      Yeah, plenty, he is pretty tough, likes to bumrush his opponents but he does not have much boxing skill. He has got some power though and some decent speed, at least against the low level opposition.

        I would say that at that level he looks better then Sam Peter.

          Now that JC Gomez has lost, will he be the new love in your life?

            Deontay Wilder, Tor Hamer, Denis Boystov, and Odlanier Solis are the future of the heavyweight division. If Solis can keep his damn weight down, dude weighed 260 for his ESPN USA premiere. Joke.

              I've heard about Tor Hammer, never seen him fight though, is he that big white kid with flappy sides?

                Looks like he's 50 years old but am betting he would say he's 26..

                    How did Julius Long go 8 rounds with Solis though? That's a pretty awful blotch on his record. I havn't seen a lot of Solis, but he's coming in far too heavy. Hopefully one of these guys will come through and bring some excitement to the division.
