    Josh Taylor leading the pack with Josh Kelly looking brilliant also.

    Really not sure about fowler, very fit and strong lad but just seems one paced and slow or ponderous at times. I think he should go to 160lb and focus his time there, more suited to his attributes. Too many quick boxers at 154lb.

    I think these prospects at their really early stages should not have the fights televised, just watching them knock out tomato cans ON EVERY MATCHROOM CARD makes me bored of watching them. Go have your exhibition fights somewhere else, take my money when you fight real fighters.

    It's too early to say for a lot of people. Josh Kelly does look a class act..

    A lot of talented guys, I really like watching Reece Bellotti, that guy is the most exciting to watch with real power.

    But the only ones that are a CERTAINTY is that Josh Taylor will be a success, and Okolie will be a failure. :lol:

    I was looking forward to seeing Mark Heffron at the weekend, but can't find a video of the fight maybe it wasn't televised. He looked a real talent when I saw him a couple of years ago. First guy to stop Lewis Taylor. Jamie Cox, Luke Keeler, Tommy Langford, and Eamonn O'Kane all couldn't stop Taylor.

    everyone is now in agreement they are bums. But it's good to see someone else spotted it from early.

    I think Josh Kelly will be a success and Anthony Fowler will be a failure though it’s yet to be seen maybe we will all be proven wrong. Though let’s face facts Connor Benn isn’t a prospect he’s a gimmick.
