Of course you’re right but as he’s only been pro for three years I think another year or so and a few more fights would be the way to go.He looked very open last week and even though Kovalev isn’t the same as was he can still ****

Joshua can lose and comeback. What makes you think Wilder can’t? Then I guess we’ll be talking Wilder-Joshua all over again. 😳

It all depends on where you are in your career and how you lose. You can't compare the two fighters. Wilder is much further into his career and either doesn't want to or doesn't have the capacity to learn anything new or fix his mistakes. Buatsi is still learning and has time on his side. Wilder doesn't.
I'm still not convinced yet that Buatsi is going to be a world titlist. He still has potential but was getting hit too much by Callic to be considered a favorite against anyone in the top 5 at LHW.

“All british fight”....”another all british fight”.....man I’m glad I left that mess, such a small mentality. When will we see the “empire mentality” go away? It’s been 60+ years now....

Every country has the same phenomina, local rivalry fights are the same too. Its involves a more intimately acquainted fan base. What's wrong with that?

Didn’t this guy go on a life and death fight against a nobody last week? Unless Kovalev is really really washed up I don’t see how. He can’t allow Kovalev to land a single shot.

Prospect is a level of experience not an indication of age lol.

Like I said in another post, Buatsi has got to learn how to move his head and slip punches and bend at the waist...he is too straight up. Thats going to come back to haunt him if he doesn't improve those areas.

That's fairly young for a light heavyweight.

He will peak in his early 30s, most likely.
