The Man known as gurgan honesian is a beast.
Yes, this monster uh, honestly 4-0 right now in This heavyweight division.
Guys and honestly he’s looking like a beast he’s going to be fast-tracked by none other than BBC.
That’S where he’s been picked up um.
You know this: gigantic Armenian heavyweight will square off against.
He was supposed to square off against Victor Foss on the opening uh.
As the opening belt for the Terence Crawford Earl Spence, but unfortunately, Victor Fox had to pull out due to a back injury, but this kid is coming off of a sixth round TKO Victory off of our man.
Uh Michael.
I believe it was coffee coffee in a six rounder uh.
Just give me a second guys.
Let me let me figure this out here.
I want to just break down his his credentials, for you, uh he’s only 25 years old and uh.
The guy is already forced to be reckoned with man uh he took on.
He took on coffee uh.
You know over Nissan he’s: 4-0 4kos uh.
He didn’t drop coffee uh, who was 13 and 3 with 10 Knockouts uh he, but he busted up coffee during the final two rounds, coffee of Kissimmee Florida uh, you know, has lost three of his past four fights, including back-to-back defeats uh to John Johnny rice uh.
Around before their fight ended, uh, yo, gergen, here big dirt, Big Gus, whatever you want to call them uh, you know, activity both to the head and body seemed to slow down coffee during the one-sided fifth round.
Coffee and homonesian traded hard head and body shots during the competitive fourth and around they can contested mostly on the inside uh coffee rock over Nissan, with a right hand that made him Retreat just before the Midway Mark of the third round.
Uh over Nissan shook his his head to indicate he wasn’t badly hurt and brought in and brought enough time to recovery and caught coffee with left and rights, as he backed coffee into the ropes towards the end of the second round.
Hope venezian hammered away at coffee with power shots about 10 seconds after the halfway point of the first uh you know and he landed a right uppercut before he began to let his hands really go, but guys this kid, 25 years old, he’s ranked 49 at 1390.
Right now, in that heavyweight division, guys PBC is trying to Fast Track him.
Due to the you know, the kind of competition that he’s already faced.
He has fought some, you know pretty stiff competition for somebody.
Who’S only got four fights in their respelled he’s ranked number two in Armenia uh.
The kid is six seven, with an 81 inch reach and uh yeah, he was set to take on Victor Foss, but unfortunately they had to pull out.
So, honestly, I can’t wait to see this guy get back in the ring uh.
He hasn’t fought since coffee, which was back last year, man October, so he’s been out of the ring for a year, uh, unfortunately, that Victor fox fight kind of had him.
You know put on the side burner for the minute, but I can’t wait to see this kid man.
You know Tyson Fury, Alexander music, Deontay Wilder Anthony Joshua.
They comprise the core of boxing’s Glamor division, but three of those heavyweights will be 35 years of age and older by the time Now, by this time now, man Joshua, turns turns 34 in October and hasn’t won a major fight since he Avenged you know his his Losses since uh, since he became this wonderful uh, you know his last knockout there, which uh you know, was kind of kind of a lackluster knockout man to be honest, but guys.
Nonetheless, we got this big guy coming up through the through the heavyweight division.
Man 4-0.
4Kos uh, you know the kid has definitely taken on uh, some pretty stiff competitions.
Last few fights one of them being Michael Coffey, the one before that Jesse Bryan Jesse Bryan was 20 six and two going into that fight and uh Brian had a cut Left Eye from legal punches in round one Brian was down twice in round two count waived And uh, you know that’s just the way it goes so this kid he hasn’t been the distance yet uh.
He debuted against uh Jayvon, Daphne uh, who was two and four going into that fight, and that was a K on the first round, Daphne down round one and counted out, so this kid he’s got big hands, definitely likes to throw them ain’t.
No, you know he ain’t shot.
He ain’t shy about letting those hands go and uh.
You know whether whether we like it or not, man like, like my counter program, says grumpy.
Graham, you know this heavyweight division seems to be a little clogged up.
Well, guys, don’t worry, we got a lot of good new heavyweights coming up through the division and uh.
This is one of the men, an Armenian, a big Armenian.
This monster six, seven.
Eighty one inch reach you know weighing in at like 270.
Pounds can’t wait to see this kid in action again, but be on the Lego form.
Man PBC is trying to get behind this guy and just really give him a push uh.
You know that glamor division.
This is what we want to see man.
We want to see that Undisputed heavyweight champion.
We haven’t seen one since you know the introduction of the four golf era.
So it’s about time that we see somebody come in here and really you know, start start moving up.
These lines, man, so now we got this kid.
We’Ve got.
You know, Torres Anderson.
We’Ve got a ton of these young guys who are just coming up through these ranks here who are going to be a force to be reckoned with in the future man so be on the lookout.
For this kid, The Undefeated Armenian heavyweight Bergen, hominisian, yes, guys! Yeah watch out for this guy big Doug.

He definitely can let his hands go and uh.
He will be something dangerous man.

So we you know he had an impressive amateur record, won all of his first four professional fights by knockout.
So you know he does have what it takes to uh to you know, maybe be a champion one day if he can stick to the game plan and they don’t push this kid too fast, because you know when they do push these heavy weights fast.
It takes you know one or two bad fights where you know he might not be able to recover from it, and you know it’ll defeat him too mentally, but uh.
