Boxing’s cruiserweight (200 lbs) division doesn’t get much attention in North America, which isn’t surprising given the majority of the current top fighters are from Central or Eastern Europe, with a spattering of contenders from Latin America and Africa. However unpopular it may be stateside, cruiserweight is clearly one of the deepest divisions in boxing right now, and on Saturday we’ll be seeing quite possibly the hardest power puncher in the sport make his US debut as part of the World Boxing Super Series tournament.
Russia’s Dmitry “The Russian Hammer” Kudryashov has a record of 21-1, and all of his wins (plus his one loss) have been by stoppage.
