Nah I don't rate Wallin at all personally. A lot of people seem to be sleeping on Schwarz.. I think hes solid and he's only a baby for a heavyweight at 22 lots of time to improve more.
He packs a punch,have good reflexes but other than that he is too skinny and not that skilled to make an impact in the division,he does not have good amateur experience.

In a long interview with L'Equipe, Tony Yoka explores his various proposals as he prepares to meet in coach Virgil Hunter and promoter Al Haymond in Las Vegas. But Tony wants to stay in France, where his audience is. He could join the teams of Sébastien Acariès or Wladimir Klitschko (fiancé of Hayden Panettiere, father of his daughter Kaya, born in 2014). He could also directly negotiate his broadcasting rights as advised by his friend Brahim Asloum. Two French groups are fighting for Tony Yoka: on the one hand, SFR Sport, on the other Canal + who would like to launch a documentary series about the champion that Cyril Hanouna could produce between his matches ... The star of the Bolloré group, Was also present during the first contacts with Tony Yoka. "I love Cyril," Tony told L'Equipe, "it's authentic and speedy, I love its shows, it's young and it's cool. But is it good adviser? Tony Yoka is not fooled: "Brahim Asloum is a good counselor, I have no business with him, so I can listen to him." Cyril is different, I know that he preaches for his parish He's less objective, it's human, I'm a friend with Hanouna, but I've got to fight a lot, "he said with a smile. His father, his first coach, and adviser the most important. Tony Yoka explains his pitiful failure at the London Olympics when he was released in his first match: "I thought I was a great and I did not listen to my father." It is with him that he leaves to La Vegas, he wants the coach Virgil Hunter ... "My father is a sage," adds Tony who compares his sport to chess. Still, at just 24 years of age, Yoka needs challenges, even if it means making less money: "The first thing I ask is a career plan ... If you focus on the I do not want to (...) Even if I take less money, I want real challenges. " His dream ? To win the belt currently held by the American Deontay Wilder, the WBC: "It is the one that I want above all, it is mythical because all the great champions have won it."

Don't know much about Frank... But as mediocre as Cojanu might be, you'd have to favor him here given Franks incredibly padded record. If Frank can actually punch and box a bit, Cojanu could be in trouble though. Going with my gut and picking Cojanu here.
New Zealand HW prospect Junior Fa has announced he will be on the undercard of the Parker vs Ruiz WBO HW Title fight. This is Junior's 9th pro fight after turning pro in February this year. Junior Fa is now boxing full time and is working with Olympic shot putting Kiwi Jacko Gill and getting strength training from power coach who trained World Champion shot putters Valarie Adams and Tom Walsh. He is fighting Pablo Magrini : http://boxrec.com/boxer/513390
Check out some of his training. He is going to be a beast...(go to video section) https://m.facebook.com/juniorfaboxer/
To be fair, Parker's fight with Ruiz will be his 6th fight in 12 months - and that includes beating Takam in that time, even though some of the guys he's fought in that time aren't great he's been quite active at quite a high level... especially when the last fight is a title fight against a serious undefeated threat!
Oh yeah... Parkers been moved along fine! I'd definitely group him with the top heavies I consider to be "highly" active.
Barakovic could have made things interesting if he wasn't so hardwired to diving from phantom shots... Lazardis looked like he wasn't enjoying some of the half hearted pressure the journeyman was bringing. Lazardis probably isn't a top 100 HW judging from what I've seen of him.
