    Good to know. It's really early in his career but I think he has great potential and more than the other HW prospects!

    Deontay is going to need a step up soon. He's blowing away the easy competition despite his limited experience. This division is so bad that he can move up soon and start fighting better competition.

    He is so raw, man. He needs to keep fighting decent competition to develop his skills.

    He's learning though. He's a different fighter than he was in the Olympics. I agree that he needs to do this for awhile but he'd still succeed if he stepped up a bit.

    Wilder needs to stop fighting cans. He's not gonna learn anything against these guys.

    Deontay is learning on his job.

    I say let him grow two years or so to step up in title contention.

    Good stuff. There's quite a few HW prospects today. Fury, Wilder, Johnson, Boyztsov, Hamer, Solis, etc.

    I'd say the Heavyweight division is picking up. It's certainly getting more exciting.

    I saw one fight of his. It was not too impressive but that was a few fights ago, so I don't know what he looked like recently.

    He's starting to clean this weak American Heavyweight scene with ease.
