    I want to see how Gurgen Hovhannisyan holds up after 8+ rounds, against anyone top 50.

    Actually :
    Bakhodir Jalolov : amateur record 102-15
    and possibly two times gold olympic medallist.

    pro record (actually) : 14 wins (14 KOs).

    No doubt this guy is the best prospect actually.

    I used to be high on Brandun Lee, but he got dropped hard by a low-level gatekeeper

    Then he went life and death with Teofimo's KO victim Pedro Campa, and since then he's been MIA for a year

    So unfortunately it doesn't look like he'll amount to anything, which is a shame because he had some entertaining KOs

    Come on bro. Aint no one who's had 20 fights, been a pro for 7 years and won a European title a prospect.

    Not fair on the guys like Mason, Keyshawn and Azim etc

    You can’t be a world champion and a prospect at the same time.

    He got emailed it but he’s still the owner of a world title. As much as the 26-year-old prospect insult gets thrown at him he’s still at the very least contender level depending on how you consider the validity of him winning a title via email.

    Emeliano Vargas is going to be a world champion one day. He's the most talented and most promising of the Vargas Dynasty IMO.

    You can only win a world title in the ring in my book...but he is a great fighter and will be a real champion soon.

    Until Covid Boots was extremely active, even during Covid he's the only person I know that had 5 fights during the height of it. I'd give him some grace on his activity.

    Original question:
    Hamzah Sheerez is looking pretty good. I still personally consider Frank Martin a prospect (I said I didn't think he was ready for Tank yet). I think Frank's learning curve after that loss is gonna skyrocket and he's a future champion.

    Beyond that I haven't really been blown away by many prospects. Downright disappointed with a few TBH notably Antuanne Russell. And I'm not sold on Keyshawn Davis no Moton either..

    Not really high on anyone at the moment, which depresses me, since I was the self professed chief prospect authority on here for the better part of a decade.:ohno But no one holds a candle to the guys I was high on when I started posting.
