    At the age of just 21, how good is Lenny Zap?

    For me, he beats Dib and Kickett with ease.

    If he can fine tune a couple of things over the next 2 years, we may just have a genuine World Title holder on our hands.

    When did he stop?

    He was schooling Elomar before he got caught...

    I wouldnt be giving him a world title just yet. I think he probably beats Kickett and Dibb...just not sure on how he will go against a strong inside fighter. He seems to get wobbled easily at times and gets sloppy with his defence as a result of some wild punching.

    A fight against 2 of Kickett, Dibb or Davey Browne would be a good lead into a stint oversea's.

    Personally I think he'd bash Davey Browne. A good win for Zappa tonight.

    Lenny is a great prospect with great power, that is the difference between him and Kicket.
    Very exciting to watch, you can get board watching just speed.

    Thats why i said he needs to work on a few thing over the next couple of years. I agree with the things u say he needs to improve. Tighten up his defence, and improve his footwork a little and he's dynamite.

    He fought a stupid fight against Elomar, why give a kid a chance in a fight, Kickett is faster with hand and foot and a better boxer than Elomar, so he go's out and trys to flattens Elomar in 1 round and trades with Elomar in the first round and get knocked out cold, It was stupid, dumb and He payed for it just like Amir Khan, It is a lesson for kickett and lets hope his team learnt it has well.

    Good fight from Zappa last night, he is definitely one of our best prospects.
