So is Huni actually good?

[JakeTheBoxer]

He was outboxing wardley`s ears off before getting stopped.

Give the man another chance against top 10 guy.

He sure looked like a skilled fighter to me. He won every round against Wardley except the one where he got knocked out.

Huni is an excellently skilled heavyweight, however PHYSICALLY he lacks both punching power and chin.

The chin thing was an open secret as he's been put over in sparring a number of times, like similar to AJ.

I said before this fight that Huni was the more skilled boxer than Parker and not by a small margin, but Parker hits harder and is tougher.

It's a shame with Huni because he's a beautiful boxer but that combo of poor chin and power is a deal breaker at heavyweight, if you can't get opponents out of there or at least put a serious dent in them, at some point they are going to land on you 9 times out of 10.

He possesses what most heavyweights like Parker, Fabio etc do not have...

Great feet. He can move in and out, create angles and moves with speed.

That's why he will always give Fabio hell.
He would probably win every round v Parker for the same reason.

Unfortunately his chin is not good and that's something you can't train.

But fast feet are the most underrated skill in boxing. Control range and you control the fight. Create angles and you create hell.

Exactly the same reason Usyk is so good, but he's a southpaw and has a great chin too.

Good is a subjective term. Most fighters are good, there's just usually someone better.
