    I saw a thread the other day about any young up and coming fighters that you know. My question is who is your favourite prospect? Who do you look foward to seeing fight the most? Has the ability to be great? Your thoughts.

    Personally, mine is Korobov. Still has alot to learn, but the talent is their.

    :good

    You don't think he's too small a Heavyweight?
    He had a very short am career last I heard.

    Not sure how far he will go but Tony Jeffries is my favourite prospect, boxing could become huge in the area where I live if he becomes a world-class fighter.

    Featherweight prospect, Chris Avalos, 12-0 10 KO's. In his last fight, he destroyed tough mexican journeyman Giovanni Caro in the 4th round via devastating KO. Caro is the same cat who almost beat contender Bernabe Concepcion before getting KO'd in the 8th round. This kid has power in both hands. Definitely a future champion!

    dude is 6'7" with an 85" reach. he ain't small, he can grow into his frame a bit more, but he aint small. He's a little bit slow plodding, but I mean with his height that is to be expected. He's got good power and a great jab to work off of, he's one of my guys as well but I just want him to setp up in competition. He's got all the tools, just time to put them into action

    becoming more and more a complete fighter. Got the big knockout power in both hands, throws in bunches with speed and accuracy, becoming better defensively, but he's my guy at the moment. Sold out the Perdue Stadium in Salisbury, I'll be in attendance:good

    speaking of Wilder, he was beating up on punching bags once every two months ... FNF season ended so he's taking a break? Planning a step up any time soon?

    Hylon Williams is a young kid who can just box his ass off, you can just tell he's been in the ring all his life, can't wait to see more from him.

    That's how I mean. If I'm right about his am career, they might want to take him a little slower than other prospects.
