Nobody hands you anything at middleweight. Roman Kopylov has built a 15-5 record the hard way, one fight at a time since leaving Russia's regional scene.
On the feet he's a problem: 4.59 significant strikes a minute at 52% accuracy, and 80% of his wins end in a knockout. The math is bad for anyone standing across from him. Add the southpaw stance, and the puzzle gets harder still.
Most recent outing: a win over Marco Tulio via decision - unanimous. Business handled.
