Take a good look at our new overlord, guys.

• 26 years old
• Apparently hits harder than Tyson (according to a trainer and former Tyson/Lewis/Holyfield sparring partner)
• Has some background in wrestling and MMA
• 84 inch reach
• Lives in Glendale, California

His nickname is perfect, "The Great Wall" :smile

Alright, in all seriousness though, he doesn't have any experience in boxing and is reportedly learning the basics but it would be amazing if he doesn't bomb out. Imagine Wilder/Joshua/Fury vs this guy. Hype.

A bit unco, better suited for MMA.

He was in the GBP offices a while back. He could be a marketing dream, though. Tons of Asians in the LA area and/or Oscar could try putting on a card in Macau. So far it's only been TR over there.

I hope he's on a card in Carson soon. I'd like to see the guy.

He looks like hes 50. If I was him I would try my luck in MMA but the 265lbs limit might bother him even though its managable weight cut

I think moving to boxing is the best thing he could do, financially.

There's a massive audience for him. He's a spectacle to say the least. I don't think there's anyone right now that would be more of a novelty than this guy. He can also be protected a lot more in boxing. It'll be easy for his management to take him through he Wilder/Shiming route and let the hype flow. If he knocks out a steady stream of bums and learns to speak English he'll be huge.

I'm 100% sure he's roided.
6'11 and a body like that.

I'm also a bit concerned with his speed because men that big tend to be slow.

I hope he hits harder than Tyson.. Mike is only 5"9. This guy is fucken huge. If he didn't hit harder than Iron Mike that shit would be weird!

 

[Kid Cubano]

Imagine if Valuev was still around...
What a freak show!

He should hit harder than Tyson, dout he has the explosiveness though.

Would be a great marketing fighter and tbf at least the guy is in shape unlike 70% of heavyweights these days.

Good lord, dude look like a beast. Lets hope he can actually box.

His face screams the medical giantism condition.

---------------------------------------------------------
Anybody know anything about his amateur background?

I bet he's slow as fuck. I hope he doesn't have a chin made of China. I bet he's rigid as fuck too and has terrible lateral movement.

 

[The Undefeated Gaul]

LOL This fucker hits SO HARD:

 

[Xizor1d]

OMG the linsanity!

 

[shenmue]

I'm pretty sure this is the guy Anthony Joshua was talking about on Ringside this week, my 2 year old niece was making loads of nose so not totally sure but i did hear him say "Giant Asian who is fighting in the US soon".

 

[dyna]

LOL This fucker hits SO HARD:

His MMA experience sure is showing considering he telegraphs everything.

But he hits hard enough and is big enough for that to not matter that much.
Now if he has an iron chin also that would be scary.

Speaking about Anthony Joshua, I haven't seen his last fight but I heard Matt Skelton didn't have a very hard time tagging him.
Know if that's true?

 

[Brighton Bomber]

He looks more like 62 rather then 26. He wasn't as slow as I thought he would be considering his size but then he's clearly in better shape than Valuev ever was. But he telegraphs every punch can't see him progressing very far if he doesn't improve his technique.

 

[Rooster]

He's obviously not gonna become the GOAT or anything, but I really hope his career will be a success. No boxing experience but he's got some great things going for himself; massive, hits like a truck and looks to be in great shape. That should be more than enough to streamroll a pile of cans and maybe some ESPN level fighters. The hype train ride should be fun for as long as it lasts.

 

[Rooster]

Shame he isn't with a more high profile trainer. I know nothing about this John Bray guy.

 

[Mexi-Box]

That's a big motherfucker. I'd like to see him side-by-side with Klitschko.
