i would wait a 3 or 4 years on fury yet.

dimetrenko has the best chance v the 2 klitchko`s imo

he has lots of flaws , cant fight on the inside for ****, is a bit chinny, basically a jab and move fighter , and box`s by numbers a lot.

but is 6.7 has a fast jab/fast feet /and is a solid 250lb man.

not going to light up the division and americans will hate his style but he is effective.

boystov is going backwards at the moment.
i have not been impressed with his latest form and he needs to show something .
he was better punch picker 3 years ago, experience is not helping, perhaps he has gone stale.

not going to get the job done on current form.

none of the other up and comming euro heavys will beat the klitchko`s in any shape or form.

 

Tyson Fury is going to HUGE!!!

 

Odlanier Solis is the future, belive that.

 

i beleive it when i see him weighing 225lb.

until then he is a good fighter with the foot speed of a giant tortoise who is full up.

you said that he has lost a lot of weight.

lets see how much dedication to training he has in 2009.

gomez has more talent than solis IMO , but again lacks dedication in the gym .

talent only gets you so far .

 

Derek Chisora looks pretty good so far.

 

I am resolutely unimpressed by any HW prospect at the moment. Agree with Sean that Boystov looked promising at one stage but has done nothing since!

 

Andrzej Wawrzyk will have a decent future.

 

True

Wawrzyk (yellow) vs Mariusz Wach
Two unbeaten HW

 

Faruq Saleem is the Future of the Heavyweight Division...

well, Wawrzyk just UD10'ed the guy Haye knocked out in 1 round a little while back...but he's a heck of a lot better then Wach.

what's that stupid thing they keep doing when they get hit they bounce on their toes for a second and then go back to being completely flat footed?

 

Yep cos he's fought some really impressive people with great records :nut

 

At 35?
