he's about 6'8 300lbs. He was in the military so he stared a little late in combat sports. He started as a kickboxer in K-1 and was very good, below is a HL. His biggest problem since he started boxing is his weight which effects his speed and power in his punches. In k-1 he was about 270 and his agility and speed was very good along with his power.
In spite of his weight and some loss of speed i really think any HW outside of the Klychko's would have a hell of a task beating him. He has an iron chin too. If ever steps up and fights a top ten guy i wouldn't bet against him but at the same time he's less than spectacular and not really someone that you think of when surveying the HW landscape.
He's slow and ponderous these days. I used to watch him fight as a kickboxer. Obviously he's strong and tough, I don't think he has ever been KO'd in any competition so far, but I can't see him being top level in boxing. He's too old for that, with better talent coming up. Comparable to Vladimir Virchis, in that he's a threat but too limited to consistently stay at the top.
he's big & thats about it..ive seen him fight 4 times with barrett being the best opponent.he won a lackluster 12 round decision.hes big & slow...i agree with tunneys comment.
