Fernand Lopez's heavyweight prospect Dave Fotzing scores 46-second pro debut KO

Dave Fotzing, a 23-year-old heavyweight trained by Fernand Lopez, made his professional debut with a 46-second knockout of Luis Carlos de Brito (6-13). Fotzing first gained public attention a year ago when videos surfaced of him sparring with Ciryl Gane. The post also mentions Marcel Sychev, another Lopez student who was once touted for a promising future but has not fought in 18 months since his RCC appearance. However, Sychev signed with manager Daniel Rubinstein in September, who also represents Petr Yan, Arman Tsarukyan, and Rafael Fiziev, raising hopes that his career may get back on track.
