Fomer Rugby player's first pro fight as a Heavyweight: Could he be a good heavyweight

[Mayorga-Rules]

Here is Sonny Bill Williams, former player in the New Zealand Team, he decided to leave rugby and to dedicate himself in his boxing career at 23 years old.
He looks a lil bit sloppy but his athleticism will give him an advantage against out of shape bums.
He has a lot of flaws but i see maybe talent or he just fight an overmatched bum who's supposed to lose tonight( which is the case on this one).




The poll will be: could he be a Heavyweight champ in the future ?

[D-MiZe]

He won't be a heavyweight champion.

That's right but i heard on TV that he trained really like a boxer and that he would like to have a career. Maybe he's gonna stay with RC Toulonnais cause he did a good season especially in April.

Too early to say how far he will go, but he doesn't look promising. Not many fighters have come from Australasia and that will work against him. The best fighter from them parts is Katsidis, and before him it was Tszyu and both are foreigners really
