    Found it:

    Wilder faces David Long (17-1) on Novemebr 26th.

    Seams like a reasonably credible opponent, but if Wilder beats this guy decisively, he'd better start fighting serious contenders immediately.
    @ 26 years old and 20-0, it's about time you get serious.

    Helenius. Especially if he gets a new coach and takes his training to the next level.

    He's age 29.

    Timur Ibragimov will be a decent test for him on Dec 10.

    Seth Mayhem Mitchell.
    I always said that the trend of these too tall fighters would end when a shorter guy started ****ing them up. Seth is 6'2 235 pounds and has more KO power than Fury and Helenius with better boxing skill than that ***** boy Povetkin or the big stiff interchangeable Europeans.

    Well ****strodamus, considering the above hasn't actually happened why would it matter if you've always said it.

    Kingofthe1round is delusional. Right now, there is no hope in the american HW-scene and he knows it.

    Strong? Hell yes!

    Skill? Hell no. - He just slugs away. If he fights anything that doesn't say "Del Monte" on it, he'd be in trouble. (unless he could pin the guy in a corner.)

    He also seems a bit slow, movement-wise.

    I don't see it, though I agree he's worth keeping an eye on.

    David Price - his technique and athleticism is far better than the likes of helenius and fury.

    Price looked very good in his past two fights, against Butler and Dallas.

    Hopefully his current injury won't set him back too far.

    I don't agree with your negative comments about the Europeans, but I like Seth Mitchell too.

    He was impressive against Quinn. He'll be a contender and will be in some interesting fights during the next few years.
