I hadn't heard of this guy until he beat another prospect I was looking at [Nigerian Gbenga Oloukun]. I've also noticed that he's beaten another prospect, [Cuban Pedro Carrion]. He doesn't look exceptionally polished as a boxer, but he looks like he can take shots and endure, and keep his power late on in a fight. He throws some decent combinations, and in his win over Oloukun, he ended the fight with a body shot. He also seems to be making a bit of a name for himself in sparring, where he's apparently more than holding his own against top heavyweights. He's young, at 24; He is a decent size at 6′3½″. He's also from Lebanon, which is obviously unusual.
He was aparrently involved in some way over the stabbing of someone, but was cleared of any wrongdoing I think. So he may or may not be a bit of a ''bad guy''. Here's the end of his fight with Oloukun:
