    And there is no such thing race releated. Kazakhs (theyr Turks) have tons of quality boxers, Azerbaijan also produce monster boxers. Thats bcz they developed the sport and produced athletes during the Soviets era.
    Ans it's a shame how ppl like you with access to almost everything talking that low about ppl who love this sport. Here we find a trainer and treat it like a treasure.

    The poster is referring to boxers who come from the nation of Turkey. Pretty clear.

    Genetically, tukish people are different from peoples of the caucuses as well. There are similarities by many differencs

        I actually think Yildirim would have given a tough time to Groves and Smith, yea both would beat him, but not like Eubank did.

        Eubank raised his game, yes Yildirim is basic, but he is durable, but the speed of Eubank caused him a lot of problems

        Very impressed by Eubank

          The Groves fight should he win will be a cracker.

          George will be harder to find than that and would fancy himself to counter with the right hand too. Eubank Jr looked electric with his speed tonight though and you always just suspect that kid is probably packing an absolute Easter Island Statue of a chin as well, in addition to an engine that is a Ferrari.

          The question mark is still size. The Turk just got it all wrong and obviously had no reverse gear. As soon as he started throwing those wide hooks the writing was on the wall. He must be a lot better than that usually.

              I think so too.

              Although sometimes Smith does fancy it inside. But I could see both accommodating that sort of opponent and trying to keep it long as he stalked. And they're not as fast as Eubank Jr.

              Eubank Jr just wasn't having it. Held his feet from the get go and bounced his hands all over that noggin.

              I am not sold on Smith yet. For me he hasn't looked that good since he beat that French dude James Degale fought Mohamedi maybe. I am mostly impressed by his physicality more than anything else when imagining him against the other top fighters. He's just a massive unit at that weight and can obviously punch a bit but he doesn't look very dynamic. Bit Pavlik-eque

                Aren't Beterbiev and Khabib ufc guy Turks too?

                They certainly have more in common with Aydin than they do to that pos racist.

                    I'm not even sure a fighter from Turkey has ever even been a champ. Urkal maybe but wasn't that interim? Every other European country it seems has produced a world champion apart from some of the tiny ones.
