Kabayel as Joshua’s next opponent in December? If not then Yoka? Man this guy looked to be on the rise after beating Chisora. Hasn’t done a thing since.

Mike Perez was never the same after the Abdusalamov fight. Trying to get a CW title fight?

He's been trying to for years but been stop and start for him. He was in the Wbss tournament a few years back but lost in the first round to breidis a fight where breidis clinched pretty excessively and won a dull UD

That is actually the last time i saw him fight in that tourney. I’d have to look it up but I believe after he got crushed by Povetkin & then lost to Jennings maybe? He moved down but i have never seen an establish HW successfully go back down in weight. Roy Jones career took a nosedive after Ruiz, Byrd & Perez are 3 off the top of my head. Jones was only at HW for the Ruiz fight but the weight drain back to 175 pretty much was the start of the decline. Byrd simply could not see the punches coming at LHW after so many years as a HW being the faster handed fighter. He was too slow after moving down. Shawn George ended his career pretty much. Think he fought at CW once before retiring.

He is waiting for big payday and plays it safe, I mean, like extra safe. He will fight only if he knows that he will win 100%. Yoka is damaged goods and he will destroy him.

Kabayel v Yoka would be interesting. I don't see him fighting AJ unless he gets lot of money.

How the hell does Yoka get a shot @ the EBU title if he's coming off 2 losses?!!.......

Probably Yoka is on the top 15 list of the EBU for the EU title (as the EBU has two lists: one for the EBU and the other for the EU EBU), and the other guy has a voluntary defence?

By the way, the EBU EU title has been renamed to EBU silver.

Lost to Jenning: , battered by Pov, won his cruiserweight debut , lost in Tourney , and 7 fight win streak since.

I watched the fight this weekend. It was a joke, dude didn’t wanna fight Perez
