Comments Thread For: Izu Ugonoh Discusses Wach Offer, Facing a Spoiler, Boxing Politics

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Boxing can be a strange and fickle mistress. On one hand it takes and on the other it gives. Undefeated heavyweight Izu Ugonoh could certainly attest to that adage as in the last few weeks he has seen a potentially high profile fight in his native Poland collapse under the usual myriad of boxing politics while also watching his ranking with the IBF move to a career-high 15.

Keep an eye on this kid.

Unfortunately he isn't much of a kid anymore. His career really needs to jump up fast if they want to make something of Izu. The skills and body for it are definitely there. He has really high potential. Just got to get it going. I say he changes management because fighting in NZ isn't going to get you very far..

Tony is a nice little step up, but if he wins, which he should, then it's time to really start getting real dudes in there with him. He should probably relocate to fight either in the US or Europe where it will be much easier.

Guy needs some real fights like STAT. Trains with Parker, huge potential. Just seems to be fighting one journeyman nobody after another..

Izu looks to be a real go-er.

The step up time is now - he needs a big fight in the next 12 months.

I wonder if DUCO can get Izu on the undercard of Parker v Joshua? I could see him ****ing with Whyte or Price.

That's because team Parker is team Parker..Izu is shooting himself in the foot by staying there. Conflict of interest,i think they know Izu is the more talented guy, so they will slow him down unless Parker loses which is a very high probability against Joshua..He wanted the Wach fight but they didn't give it to him. they will find another local regional boxer unheard of watch.

Are you saying Izu is more talented than Parker?

And that DUCO/Kevin Barry are holding Izu back so he doesn't surpass Parker?

That's exactly what im saying. And that would be obvious to anyone who even glimpses at his fight clips.

I like me some Izu a lot - he's great to watch and in ridiculously good shape.

But damn, he's fought bums so far.

Potential yes, big potential. But more talented than Parker? Come on man.
