Odd fight...Italian close to getting dropped first two rounds, then he resorts to winning the 3rd but in a clearly dirty (for AM) way by throwing a flurry then holding against a much taller guy who should have just leaned on him.

Clemente Russo strikes again! I told you he will take gold, Usyk is next.
Lomachenko & Russo to take gold.
Russo is tied 1-1 with Rakhim Chakhkiev, already beaten Usyk, not lost in years 4/1 underdog? Easy money.
Sapiyev on later & Dychko vs Joshua

I think he would get dropped in the pro's fast.....He's an odd body for the pros....5'11" or prolly 10" fighting at 201lb......Too small for cruiser and who know if he could go much lower.
And his AM game is not very AM......he just seems odd, just like his wedding outfit.

I like him though I do find his style ugly too watch at times. I'm not sure he is looking to go pro but I'd say his style was more suited to the pros despite a great success in the amateurs (holds wins over Danny Price, Chakhkiev, Usyk, gave a good account of himself down at 81k against Andre Ward)
Euro, World gold medalist, olympic silver medalist & gauranteed at least a silver tomorrow.
He probably gets more as an amateur than he would at cruiser in the pros. The Italians are guaranteed £175,000 for a gold plus his modelling, films, etc
