    Parker is fighting Chisora in a trilogy bout as I posted a couple of days ago.

    David Surov at age 20 is the future pro that I want to see. He is the best natural mover since well ... Ali. He can in-fight as well as outfight. Too quick for the large heavies and too powerful for the smaller heavies. His speed of hand and feet is elite.

    IMO, he the best 20 year old heavyweight amauter since Wlad.

    This is why boxing is almost dead in the USA.

    Hopefully he won't be ruined by inactivity like Jalolov and Hrgovic. He needs to NOT SIGN with Top Rank.

    Fight makes no sense on any level. Not only does no one--no one in the entire world--want to see this "trilogy," but it makes no sense in the context of Parker wanting to fight Usyk-Dubois winner. Usyk-Dubois is done in July, and could be ready to fight Parker in November or December. But him fighting a pointless fight in September derails it.

    Usyk has said he is a maybe on Parker, and I believe it will happen, as Warren is going to go to any one of his guys to get the belts back after Dubois fails, even a non-Brit.

    Hrgovic wasn't ruined, but he definitely had years lost from his career due to being ducked and poor promotion. He still has wins over Zhang and Joyce and might have beaten Dubois had the ref actually enforced the rules. All things considered still one of the better heavyweights currently.

    If I could pick an opponent it would be Danier Pero.

    Agit Kabayel's next fight will be in Germany in autumn. According to the Ring.

    Also it seems he has signed a deal with Frank Warren. Here is the WBC top 15 rankings:

    1.Lawrence Okolie - he will face Lerena next. I figure Warren will what a fight between him and Kabayel for the full title.
    2 Anthony Joshua - doubt it.
    3 Efe Ajagba - busy with the Sanchez eliminator
    4 Martin Bakole - possible foe.
    5 Filip Hrgovic - possible foe, but more inclined to believe he will go for the IBF title again
    6 Frank Sanchez - could face Ajagba.
    7Bakhodir Jalalov - doubt it. Jalolov isn't ready.
    8Zhilei Zhang - already fought.
    9 Richard Torrez Jr. - doubt it. Torrez isn't ready.
    10 Mourad Aliev - he just got beat by that Albanian dude. Reckon that Labinot could get the fight.
    11 Moses Itauma - Itauma is headed the WBO route.
    12 Deontay Wilder - Doubt it.
    13 Andy Ruiz - possible foe.
    14 Derek Chisora - already fought.
    15 Jared Anderson - doubt it.
