(but no, I don't see him being a champ at 20-21)

I agree, he definetly looks a bit too small for a heavyweight, but his speed might make up for that.Comment

Denis is on a good track. Tyson became the champ in 2 years after the pro debut. Denis reminds me young Tyson.
Here are links to some of his fights:

Thanks for the links Nautilus. I couldn't get the first two links to work (problem on my end).Originally posted by NautilusDenis is on a good track. Tyson became the champ in 2 years after the pro debut. Denis reminds me young Tyson.

How can you compare this guy to Tyson though? Two of the last three links had the ref stepping in and stopping...I didn't see anything even close to the one punch KO power of a young Tyson. The last link shows a guy going down from a volume of punches, not one or two hard shots.
He doesn't have the head movement, speed, or aggressiveness of a 19 year old Tyson, and when he steps inside swinging, he swings wide and he's wide open for counters. I think he'd have trouble with someone stronger than him.
I would need to see a lot more from this guy before I would say he's going to be the next Tyson.Last edited by jayr517; 07-03-2005, 05:59 PM.Comment

Yes, you are right, but I do think the guy is very interesting, throws interesting combinations, etc. The first two links should work if you download the files first.Comment

Yes, he has a long way to go but he does have some things going for him: he is young, aggressive and athletic with fast hands.
He is raw right now, but it would be ****** to rush him into a fight with a really good fighter too quickly. The old-time fighters fought often, like he is doing, and fought a lot of scrubs...they learned from every fight they fought.
Although Tyson became the youngest heavyweight champion (which was Cus's primary goal) even he was probably rushed too quickly. Tyson was too young to deal with all that a champion has to deal with (out of the ring...in the ring he was better than anyone ever)and he eventually succumbed to the pressures and pleasures of being on the top of the world at too young an age.
Boytov is someone to watch for in the next 2-3 years. He has skills that he is still developing but there is no mistaking his innate agression and and athletic ability.Comment

If He's as good as Tyson (which I highly doubt) then maybe.
Other then that, I doubt it.Comment

Another Russian hype...

sorry, no way bro...he is too small for a heavyweight and it would take well more than 2 years for him.......having said that, boxing out of germany will definitely help him.
a future cruiserweight and perhaps heavyweight star is this guy:
