I consider and for years have considered Joseph Goodall the best Oceania region heavyweight. I think he is a world champion in the making.

Roman Fress will face journeyman Ralf Sawetzki on his pro debut

 

He has a win and a draw over Yoka

 

Arhypenko's pro debut is off. Second time this happens to him. He was set to make pro debut last year but that failed to materialize. If he fights in this year's WSB, he will not turn pro this year.

 

Rostyslav Arkhypenko.

His pro debut has been canceled but he is likely to turn pro because Ukraine is without WSB team this year. Ukraine's government denied funding to Ukraine's WSB team.

 

Heavyweight Viktor Vykhirst is another who could turn pro because of the lack of Ukraine's team in the WSB amateur competition.
