Better learn some head movement before you do, or it's getting taken off.

well said. very unfortunate. very true.

Forget about it. You are hot garbage. You can't hit. However, you can take a good asswhooping though. All the top major heavyweight contenders would spark you the fuck out.

zero defense doesnt get the fat fighter very far.

Fun fight .
Kownacki's lucky it wasn't a 12 rounder . Martin looked the fresher of the two in the final rounds and Kownacki's seemed to be getting hit more as the fight progressed .

Brave performance from big Charles that should put to bed any doubt over his heart . I can only give him 2 rounds there .... I’d love to see Kownacki do that with @JoeJoyce_1 because he’d get knocked clean out

The heavyweight division is not an elite division right now. Everybody at the top has a few cracks in their armor... So where does this kid stack up?

His conditioning is good enough that he throws punches throughout, it would not hurt him to lose weight but he also depends on hitting with looping heavy hands. He has plenty of time to lose a few, I don't think it is an issue.

He has a way he fights and it is very basic. Good, bad? Just very basic. The real question would be if he can execute against a fighter who has defensive skills. He tends to loop his shots as well, and not move his head...So he has to make a major decision.

His style has gotten him this far...and he is young. Does he learn the craft? go into the gym, take apart all those bad habits? straighten his punches out, learn to sit down on some of his shots, learn to use his shoulders and head movement., start to work on angles, and cutting the ring down? or does he just understand that in this division right now, if he keeps young and whole, he might learn a few tricks down the line, maybe get a chance to upset a fighter who has more on the ball, but is vulnerable to pressure that is continious... and go for it?

What would you do fellow poster?

That was a very entertaining fight last night. However, Kownacki isn't ready to be a champion. Martin was very close to beating him last night. And he's not even that good.

It's an embarrassment to the HW division that someone can look like this Pillsbury dough boy and be considered a contender. The physique of these HWs is disgusting. It's why I don't take this division seriously.
