    If you looking for a hot prospect, check out Matt Korobov. The man has pound for pound skills at middle weight.

    When is vitali going to stop fighting old out of shape contenders like gomez, and fight some fresh prime new blood. I hear vitali is interested in fighting oleg maskaev, yet another 40 year old mediocre fighter. When vitali going to fight potvekin, haye, valuev, chagaev, arreola, chambers???

    Um, Vitlai has tried to make fights with Valuev. Valuev and his management won't fight him. Also Vitali does not want to fight Maskeav next, instead he wasn't to fight a bigger challenge. He did mention Arreola instead of Maskeav.

    Only seen him in one fight but Daniel Jacobs could go far. Craig Mcewan as well.

    Haha, that's just not logical.:patsch

    The only way I see Haye having a chance against Wladimir is by KO/TKO inside three, if he can't get it done sooner than that he'll gas and then be deconstructed by the master. Vitali would become his daddy if they fought, he just can't beat him except by cuts.

    I started a Daniel Jacobs express thread over a year ago and only now are people starting to take notice of him.

    He will go far, he was a quality amatuer robbed of his olympic place.

    I mentioned fernando guerrero a few days ago...I think he has the potential to work himeself towards a championship shot in the next year or 2...has anyone else heard of him? seen him (You tube footage is limited)? or have an impression of his potential? He does seem a bit small for a middleweight, will that present any problems for him??? any thoughts, would be appreciated.
