He’S probably done a bunch of years in the uh Red Army.
If you know what I mean, you know he’s like six: eight, like 270 280 walking around this guy’s, a scary dude he’s a monster, the lion.
What more can you say right? The guy’s a beast uh, you know three knockdowns stops Raphael in round two uh.
You know this guy had no idea what was coming his way.
No for a guy that big to move that fast is very, very dangerous.
You know heavyweights.
They don’t have to have that speed and uh.
You know this guy’s pretty chill for a big guy and uh.
He definitely has that speed from that opening bell.
You can see it right away.
He comes in there and just brings the pain and even and even if he doesn’t connect just brushing you with these big hammer, fists that this guy has will just drop you man and it proves in this fight here, man, you know twice in round one finishes: It in round two uh, you know big performance from this guy he’s here to crush everyone.
