    Gorman's combination was incredible!

    Just going over the fight from last night.... Gorman is an incredible boxer AND puncher. The combination and uppercut that dropped Turner was pure class, everything I love about HW boxing.

    Watch the whole fight to get the true idea of what I'm saying, but I'll start it from just before the combo.... what a HW we have here! Does everything well, and can punch!

    He does throw some nice combos. None of that jab-jab-grab Klitschko stuff.

      He looks really good but there are tougher tests ahead.

        What happens when he takes a punch though? I'd like to see him against a durable opponent who can punch back.

          Hes not an incredible puncher ,he does have power body shots and if he keeps hitting you in the same spot he'll hurt you and has a hard upper cut . .

          I still have him over Dubois at this point still who is a power puncher .

          Gorman is the most complete boxer in the HW division .

            He does pique my interest but he has not fought any type of real opposition.

              It's always the question when you have a good boxer.... what happens when they come across another good boxer?

              We can only speculate, but Gorman looks to have all the tools, whether his chin, stamina and heart hold up at the elite level is still to be proven.

              I'll enjoy following him to find out though.

                His punch variety is incredible for a HW, and he has GOOD power, that's what I mean. he's obviously not a AJ/Wilder level power puncher, but the guy can dig one in for sure.... and he's a boxer/mover that can explode when he wants.

                He carries power and can box. Will be interesting to see him against the top 20 guys.

                  I was saying last night that he has some attributes rarely seen in todays HW scene. Very tidy boxer, great punch variety and selection, quick hands. obviously it's much easier to show those things against limited opposition. It will be good to see how he progresses. If he continues to move through the rankings, i could see him becoming quite a high risk, low reward kind of guy.

                  I just wonder if he's undersized for the big guys in the division. It wouldn't surprise me if he could make cruiserweight if he was in better shape. There's no way he's 6'3 too like BoxRec says. He's about 6'1" at best.
