    Some 10-15 years ago, the Eastern Euro guys held all the belts. WBC,WBA,IBF, WBO.

    How good is the next wave and they certainly have an age advantage when they arrive over Fury and Usyk.

    Hrgovic, Jalolov, amd Makhmuudov. One if these three perhaps two will be champion.

    Makhmudov needs to get a move on. Has 3-4 years left.

    Dychko still has time if he just gets his act together.

    Fury could be around for another 5 years if he wanted though.

    Very good but they just can't get fights. Need way better promoters.

    Muhahahahah, zero chance Fury be around for 5 more years. Actually he could be if he fight like now once per year and fight C level guys.
    He is already in decline, forget about in 5 years.

    Jalolov is central Asian.

    Sirenko. Dychko and Kossobutskiy if you are including central Asians.

    More accurate would be the former USSR.

    To be fair, Dychko is ethnically Eastern European. Wlad was born in Kazakhstan too but nobody would call him Central Asian.

    Well done.
    GGG is from the former USSR Republic of Kazakhstan; Mairis Briedis and many others (Lomachenko, Usyk,...).

    Jalolov haze been looking like he could be killer for a while now, I'd be interested to see what he's going to do after sokolowski.

    Hrgovic needs to step up his opposition fast, you can only crush do many cans before you get found out.

    Makhmudov fights this weekend I think.

    We'll see how good really he is against Wach

    If he can KO him it will make a big statement.

    No, because Wach is totally shot 42-years-old and his defense is non-existant.

    I would rather watch Mahkmudov against somebody like Ali Eren Demirezen than against totally shot Wach
