Latifi looked surprisingly okay at HW.
During his last performances at LHW he gassed in the 2nd round and had problems taking people down.
I was expecting him to hit a strength wall at HW and not be able to take anyone down, but he proved me wrong.
His huge gaps and exploitable problems are still evident though.
Especially how he dips his head in a predictable way.
He will never go more than a few fights in a row without getting caught badly due to that weakness.
He's always very easily bullied back to the fence due to lack of range.
To me this was a slight success - taking on the biggest HW at least proved that size will not be a huge issue going forward.
Obviously he showed he's got nothing for the top 3, but I think he can hang with the lower end of the top 10.

True. But it was very close, he could've won with different judges.
