My Take
Tony Yoka carried enormous expectation from the moment he won super-heavyweight gold at Rio 2016, and that weight has shaped his story in fascinating ways. A Parisian giant at 197 cm, decorated even with the Legion of Honour, he has known both the heights of amateur glory and the harsh scrutiny of the professional ranks. What I respect is that he never hid from the pressure of being France's heavyweight hope. His career has had setbacks, but I still find his sheer physical presence compelling, and I would love to see him write one more memorable chapter in the ring.
