Buatsi is one of the leading light heavyweight prospects in the world at the minute and In all honesty, this action was a pointless exercise.

  1. Boxing is an amateur martial art that features two fighters (boxers) who employ technique, agility, and speed to throw and deflect punches on an opponent (rounder). The goal is to hold your opponent down until the match referee decides the bout is over. The match is won when a fighter knocks his opponent out with punches or kicks to the head, body, or groin. The match is also won by whichever fighter can remain standing for the duration of the bout.
