Does anybody know of any really good HW prospects, obviously we know how little there is at the moment but is the future looking bright. Being in the UK I'm aware that David Haye could be an interesting development especially if he gets past the test of Mormeck at cruiserweight as he plans to move up to HW (im not too sure if he can carry the power upto HW but time will tell). Who else is there to keep a look out for at age 27 or under?
Alexander Povetkin- if his future ain't bright then neighter is the sun!! Dennis Boytsov- 20 years old. ABSOLUTE BADASS. Andrey
Maybe too early to tell but Odlanier Solis Fonte could go far. His amateur accomplishments include an olympic gold medal and two gold medals in the world championships. He has only fought two proffessional fights but those were against very competative opponents, he won them both by KO in the first round. He´s fighting today again against Aldo Collinader. http://www.boxrec.com/boxer_display.php?boxer_id=391766
I think Oleg Platov might become a solid top ten fighter .... And although many people undermine Dimitrenko i think he still has the potential to develop into a legit top ten fighter. Think he needs to change trainer though.
Odlanier Solis is not very fast but check out his punching power. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrS-bjfnH08 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=th7CCENb8ww
Yeah ive heard good things about this guy,and damn if nothing else he has a frigging great boxing name,suprised no ones used that for a computer game yet lol
I still have the hope that Taras Bidenko will be able to overcome his reluctance to mix it up with his bigger opponents after his devastating ko loss to Virchis.Since that brutal ko at the hands of heavy handed Virchis Bidenko hasnt been the same.He is gun-shy,and quite cautious inside a box ring.However,he keeps winning,and he for sure is one of the biggest young heavy weight talents out there. He doesnt have much pop in his fists,but he can give any opponent hell as Valuev was able to experience when he faced Bidenko.At that time Bidenko only had 4 pro fights,Valuev had more than 30 pro fights.Nevertheless a lot of ring observers had Bidenko ahead on points after 12 very close rounds. Bidenko has the tools and the talent to go very far,but all depends on his abilty to overcome that brutal ko loss to Virchis.
