    Charlie Edwards, Lee Mcgregor, kash, butler etc

    Dennis beats them all. He looks a level above

    Agree?

    Definitely don't agree. The Naz comparisons are ridiculous. Wait till he boxes someone who wants to beat him.

    Looks good but withholding judgement until he goes up the levels. There’s a lot to be said for good textbook boxing over flashiness

    He looks good but so does 99% of “ promising novices “ when they are in the first 10-15 fights of the career against mainly fighters with more loses than wins !

    Talented prospect and looks like he has nuclear bombs in his hand at this level..... but then so did David Price when he was at domestic level.

    Let's see how he fares when he goes through the levels.

    Certainly looks like he can go all the way though.

    Fidoe who is one of the ultimate journeymen around the weight, said he had never been hit before the way McCann cracked him.

    There are good prospects and there are one's like McCann, who from the minute I saw him made me sit up the same way I did when I saw a young Hatton or Calzaghe and other special kids.

    There's obviously a long way to go, but he seems to have all the tools to work with, including a great attitude and genuine charm.

    He has got a decent step up against Matos next up, so I will watch with interest how he deals with him.

    Excellent prospect that's for sure. He looks the real deal. I look forward to is fights more than any other prospect because he looks like he's as special talent.

    He looks very good. He’s still very young and fought absolutely nobody. Let’s be honest, if he thought Edwards tomorrow then Edwards would end his career. There’s no point in rushing our prospects and hyping them up as world champions before they’ve even hit English level, let alone British!

    McCann doesn’t need the attention, let him simmer in the background for a few years.

    Too early. It’s the whole excitement over power again. Kash Farooq and Lee McGregor would be too much, let alone Edwards.

    I think McGregor is improving all the time, and Farooq is very skilled

    Its not just power though Mccann has the skills, speed youth, confidence and work ethic. He's ticking all the boxes so far .

    I agree about Mcgregor though, he looked brilliant in his last fight.

    I didn't rate him as much as the hype was trying to suggest but having someone like Brett Fidoe and Jon pegg singing his praises like they did, then I am now understanding that there must be quite a lot to mcCann

    I disagree that he beats those names. McGregor and Kash are both also very good. He needs to be matched efficiently which seems to be difficult at this weight in Britain. Long old way to go but I would certainly lay money on him becoming world champion.
