Francesco Pianeta, Italian Heavyweight?

Question

I had never heard of him until recently. Hes 6' 5", and hes undefeated. Has anyone seen him fight or know more about him, and if so, how good a prospect is he?

Answer 1

I have never seen him fight, but I looked him up on boxrec and it showed that he has a record of 16-0, 10 KOs.  He is coming off a win over a fellow formerly unbeaten prospect named Michael Marrone.  His next fight is against Scott Grammer (18-2-1, 9 KOs) in Russia.  Most of his previous fights have been in Germany where he currenly lives.  He is young and undefeated, and with the heavyweight division in the state that it currently is in, who knows?- he may be able to go far.
