Never heard of him, but that's gonna be the case with about 90% of french boxers so....yeah don't know **** about him.


Looks like a career Cruiser though, so that's not a good look.

Yoka is very good. He's going to win by ko in 1-2.

But I hope he scales up a little bit...come on!

Yoka is almost 29, at the same stage of his career, AJ had beat klitschko and held two world titles.

Amazingly I’ve seen this guy live.

He fought Craig Kennedy a few years back on Cyclone card. Put Kennedy down twice and was unlucky not to get the decision IMO.

He’s definitely a Cruiserweight though. Yoka should obliterate him.

After his impressive 1st rd KO of Duhaupas i was looking forward to the Milas fight. The new opponent is a massive let down but with covid it is probably hard to get opponents

I've never heard of Pezhan Seifkhani, but to make matters worse I've never heard of the RBO. Can anyone help me out?

Yoka needs to fix his flaws. Good power, good offense, stamina holds up, but he allows opponents way too easily to close the distance on him and doesnt have advanced defense to slip or roll with shots, just takes punches on his guard and is vulnerable for uppercuts.
Feet are too flat, cant properly maintain range with movement and jabs.

Yoka needs rounds.

I wish he would rematch Hammer soon.

Big Joe is getting waxed. He's an enormous cruiser but he lacks power even at that weight, Yoka puts him to sleep early. Richards will shut out De Carolis in a bore
