Star? Anyway, he will not make it. Too old, not to good for boxing, already 30 years old and just a 3-0 record against bums.
Vigney was a football player before? It"s hard to make such transition. I remember him, that in kickboxing he had no legs for kickboxing. While myself as a former boxer, I can tell in boxing you need even more the legs...
Probably going for the boxing purses! Basically on Wikipedia I see it"s not written anymore Deontay Wilder is also a former football player (junior and youth). I always used to tell that he has no legs for boxing, and that he owns insane power but his technicity is pretty limited. In amateur boxing he did well because those are just chickens fighting. Wilder was a favorite of mine because the division was weak, but I knew he would lose to Tyson Fury. Fury actually was my first favorite. And I also do think Joshua is overrated, untested, much more like a boxer than Wilder but Wilder has insane power to catch him (because Joshua is far from a real elite).
So no, Vigney is impossible to make it... Jarell Miller, aka the Whale, has always been TECHNICAL and now he added a lot of weight! That"s why his boxing career is ok. Plus in kickboxing Xavier was as wild as the new Americans.
I don"t understand why some would prefer becoming like Gary Goodridge, and not for big money. I don"t understand why untalented people still fight. Xavier Vigney doesn"t look to come from a very poor background or not to be capable of graduating something, or at least to sell cars. It"s the US, not Chechnya. Or Africa, or whatever...
