Comments Thread For: Tony Yoka Blasts Out Travis Clark in Two Rounds in Pro Debut

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

French Olympian and 2016 super heavyweight gold medalist Tony Yoka (1-0, 1KO) made his highly-anticipated pro debut with a two round knockout of previously undefeated Travis Clark (12-1, 8 KOs) at Le Dome - Palais Des Sports de Paris in France. Yoka, who is promoted by Richard Schaefer of Ringstar Sports and trained by Virgil Hunter, was too much for the 38-year-old Clark, who had never faced a fighter of Yoka's caliber.

How can he bring the heavyweight title "back" to France? It has never resided there.

In any case he seems like a promising prospect for the future.

There was a big crowd there to see him last night. I like that they put him in a 6 round fight against a 12-0 trial horse in his debut. He threw a few good body shots & caught him with a nice uppercut in the 2nd before the finish. A work in progress but by the looks of it he will have good fan support & if he is carefully brought along then we could have another solid HW in the mix. I will be watching.

I was worried he was facing a 12-0 guy until I saw the gut on him
