Joshua and Parker probably can no longer be classed as prospects so .... I'd say the best are.. 1 Sergey Kuzmin 2 Oleksandr Teslenko 3 Hughie Fury 4 Andy Ruiz 5 Adrian Granat 6 Tom Schwarz 7 Bogdan Dinu
Oleksandr Usyk will be a heavyweight by the end of 2018. He will enter as the top cruiser and jump immediately into a high profile HW bout.
That's actually a fantastic, legit list. Huh, surprised to see a good list in the OP. Usually you see dog feces in the OP. You also forgot Oscar Rivas who should be up there. I'd probably rate him above Ruiz. Some others to keep an eye on. Kyotaro Fujimoto-Former kickboxer. In only his fifth pro fight, he beat Chauncey Welliver. Might be a dark horse. He needs work, though, since he took a loss being matched so damn tough. They since put the breaks on. Zhilei Zhang-Olympic silver medalist. A lot of people seem to forget about him. Vladimir Tereshkin-Undefeated and a Klitschko sparring partner signed with K2. Cassius Chaney-Former basketball star. Have my doubts he'll be anything great, though. Izuagbe Ugonoh-Polish heavyweight from Nigeria. I'd probably rate him in the top 5. Watch his highlights. Very good prospect to watch. Jarrell Miller-Not too crazy about him, but will probably get a big fight soon. Jun Long Zhang-Undefeated Chinese fighter that stopped George Arias. Agit Kabayel-Undefated German that should be in the top 10 as well. Defeated fellow undefeated prospect Lewandowski. Former kickboxer IIRC. Mohamed Al Zein-Another undefeated German. Signed with Ohner.
I don't think I'd put him in the top 7. There are better prospects that are being left out of that list. Ughonoh is a lot better than Miller, I'd wager.
He deserved to. Dude was running a damn Walgreens out of his home. Guy was on every PED under the sun. Either way, Teper was about to become a contender after he defeated Helenius.
He's not that prominent in that list, though. He's like #7; although, I don't even think Ruiz belongs there right now. Ruiz's lack of discipline is appalling.
That's an easy one. Everyone is dying for Erislandy Savón to turnover. Not sure what's going to happen there, though. I don't pay hardly any attention to the amateurs.
