There has never been a blonde HW #1 in the pros, I'm rooting for Dronov with all of my hair.

 

Keep an eye out for Enriko Itauma he’s an absolute beast

 

Karol's brother, seriously talented

 

16 of the top 20 are from ex Soviet Union countries #domination

9 from Russia, 2 Kazakhstan, 2 Uzbekistan, 1 Georgia, 1 Armenia, 1 Azerbaijian

 

Nikita Putilov recently beat Nelvie Tiafack at the German national championships. So he should be much higher than he is.

 

Most of them have no prayer of going anywhere as a pro. Wrong nationalities, won't get any quality promotion.

 

You act like there is no money for boxing anywhere else in the world. Im sure the ones good enough will do just fine. The money countries in the middle east have more interest in Russian Athletes than they do American or British.

 

But do they really have any interest in sports aside from using them to cozy up to the west? ESPN is pushing Anderson, the UK is pushing their fighters. Jalalov is getting some opportunities. That is about it.

 

You are correct, just look at past history, the eastern euros get nothing given to them and by the time their talent takes them to where they deserve to be, they are nearing their end.

 

Very true.

 

Dychko is a prime example of this.

 

Absolutely, plenty of examples. Ivan is a good example, Korobov was ****ed around for years, Golovkin and Beterbiev, even those types that become names have to do it a ridiculously hard way. Then you get the young US fighters promoted heavily, one half decent win, they are already in all the medias p4p lists. Not to mention dodgy judging when they do get their shot also.
