Bad match up for Kelly. He was lucky to escape with a draw against Ray Robinson.

Robinson would beat Avanesyan.

From what I’ve seen of Kelly, he looks good against domestic level opponents, but has a noticeable lack of power when he fights above that level. He also boxes like he thinks he’s a cross between Hamed and Roy Jones, but in reality is pretty easy to hit.
I’ve not seen the Russian box but if he’s any good, he should be able to bully Kelly.
Robinson was giving him a lot of a trouble, and he wasn’t particularly strong or powerful.

Yeah, people here are talking **** abput avanesyan, but after watching him quite a bit I think kelly gets beat up, the russian is world class. Could **** with all welters except the top 5 dogs.

Not that big of a step up. Avanesyan is not the same and regressing. I wish it was a true better matchup. Pu..y boy needs to lose so we can be done being fed his hype and BS! A very undedicated boxer that Hearn gifts with corrupt judging and keeps trying to hype.

I don’t think Robinson is a pushover. But DA can handle himself and I was impressed with how he handled Peterson although he list a close decision. Kelly seems to start fast but then gas and he takes too many punches, I think DA beats him. Robinson imo should have gotten the decision against Kelly

Not seen this mentioned anywhere else, Neil Marsh has come out accusing of Kelly and his team of messing Avanesyan around, especially Adam Booth...
