Comments Thread For: Lateef Kayode Eyes Heavyweight Move in Early 2013

[Walt Liquor]

Not a good idea. Tarver almost knocked his a$$ out. Lateef Kayode is the Cruiserweight version of Timothy Bradley. When you look at him from a casual fan standpoint, you'd think that he's a big puncher and has tremendous KO power, but he's an arm-puncher.

The only worse boxing analogy ive ever heard is the one where faygola floyd fans compare hatton to duran, baldo to jcc, and pwilly to hearns.

Kayode is an exciting hard punching cruiserweight but he should stay at cruiser.
Fights against Huck, lebedev and Hernandez would be good and action-packed.
A fight against Huck would be a slugfest! Hes a big strong cruiser but to compete at heavyweight he needs better skills and hes still a little green.

Maybe he seriously burned his bridges with SHO, HBO never shows cruisers. At least he will bring laughs to the bigger stage.
