shaaark 11,500 Posted November 21, 2020 Report Share Posted November 21, 2020 Now, I'm not saying babic is the next heavyweight world champion BUT, he looks pretty useful. And let's not forget, mike tyson, at just over 15 stone, HAMMERED almost all his opponents when he was that weight. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There's a big difference between him and Tyson though, what made Tyson special was his ability to make fighters miss just as much as his ability to knock them out. I like the bloke though tbf and look forward to seeing him again. Edited November 21, 2020 by Greb147 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Astanley 11,659 Posted November 21, 2020 Report Share Posted November 21, 2020 How far off the cruiserweight limit is he ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It may be one of those cases where he will move down a class after getting beat by one of the big boys. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I reckon fighting the unskilled plodders at HW might suit him better than faster cruisers. He cracks me up he's like a parody of a psychotic Serbian, fun brawler to watch.

downsouth 8,373 Posted November 22, 2020 Report Share Posted November 22, 2020 The way he comes in swinging punches I cant see him getting anywhere with even half decent heavyweights and any top level cruiser shouldnt struggle too much with him either 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Massive difference between a prime mike tyson at his peak. The last few years of tyson's career,was like watching a different fighter, to when he was in his prime. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

NEWKID 28,964 Posted November 22, 2020 Report Share Posted November 22, 2020 Not seen anything of him so watched a bit on you tube...don't think he'll cause any upsets to be honest... standing there windmilling won't cut it when you go up a level or 2.. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

shaaark 11,500 Posted November 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2020 In my defense, I was on my 5th guinness when I made my post about babic. Haven't drank for a while, and it caught up with me rather quickly lol 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Greyman 32,166 Posted November 23, 2020 Report Share Posted November 23, 2020 Thought little hurt him a couple of times with body shots as well, fun to watch but shite boxer in reality, he’s clearly a bit of a tough cookie but don’t think that will take him much further than he is now unless he gets a few more weapons in his armoury a bit quick time 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
