Ismayl Sillahk - where are his supporters now?

[Snake...]

IKF Muay Thai Light Cruiserweight World Champion
2X World Kickboxing Champion (2000, 2005)
4X Russian Kickboxing Champion
12-0 pro boxing record derailing 3 undefeated fighters, 2 being highly regarded prospects.

He sure isn't no bum. He also had a short but successful MMA career. The guy is nails as proven by scraping himself off the canvas after being hit with a peach of a shot getting outboxed to hell for 8 rounds & pulling off a stunning upset.

It happens!

he was throwing some of the sloppiest hooks i ever seen

[Mikhnienko]

ye. it was you,
i remember your avatar pictures.

he was stopped three times in the amateurs from what i saw. i have not seen his complete amateur record.
if atlas was talking about him like a stiff wind would knock him out of these tournaments then he'd be wrong. he won many of them.


but, as i suspected, his chin is not spectacular.

Remember the Korobov stoppage was RSCO (ref stops contest outclassed) which is due to a point differential. In 2005 it was 15 point differential and they stop it, now it's 20. So it was only 2x, once being as a 14yr old FW.

He turned pro because he got busted taking steroids and wasn't going to be able to compete at the 2008 Olympics. Maybe some HGH and growing a giant head will help his fragile skull?

see that didn't know
i thought i saw an RSC (ref stoppage.)


and on the bold:
worth a try if you're getting stopped by the pirate

[TeamUppercut]

Honestly, I was wondering where all the power is at. I, also, kept screaming for him to throw the uppercut. There just was no work off the jab and, ironically, that earlier knock down was off two short jabs that both missed.

There are tons of fighters who had a first loss that turned to two and two losses that turned to three. So things still can't be called for certain but it helps that he's in such a weak division. From the american viewpoint, you have Dawson, Pascal and Cloud after tomorrow night and Pascal and Cloud are going to knock one or the other off for a while.

I'm actually surprised that no one said anything about trouble making weight. He had just about all the symptoms, including decreased recovery. Everything about his frame seemed shaky even after the fight ended and he hadn't taken much damage in the fight.

Trouble making weight? Sillakh walks around at 175, 365 days of the year. You dont know what your talking about.
