Comments Thread For: Sillakh: Sergey Kovalev Has Shown Me My True Weight Class

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Former light heavyweight world title challenger Ismayl Sillakh (23-2, 18 KOs), once being touted one of the hottest prospects in the game, still hopes to achieve greatness in boxing. On June 2, Sillakh will have a very tough test to define his readiness when he takes on experienced Russian fringe contender Maxim Vlasov (34-2, 17 KOs) in Moscow, Russia.

Hope he builds himself back up as his skills/talent are there, a lot of dangerous punchers at cruiser though. Kinda crazy he talks of trying heavyweight considering his chin.

Killah Kov made him go Boom Sillakh-lakh Boom. That's all I gotta say.

Not with that chin...

[Citizen Koba]

Kids got a bagload of talent but is sadly lacking in the chin department can't see that helping his chances at cruiser. And he did try CW already, in between the Grachev and Kovalev losses - bout 3 fights as far as I recall, never quite weighing the full 200. Can't recall the names of the journeymen he fought, but I do remember one of them rocking him to his socks. This does not bode well for Ismail.
