    If Medzhidov or Omarov were American or Brit they would already be millionaires with big pro contracts.

    Idk I think Parker hits harder, has better combinations, size and age on his side. Those two would be a great match up though :good And remember, our WBC champion was demolished by LHWs in the ams.

    That definetly should've been a DQ. He did it on purpose.

    Medhzidov-Omarov-Dychko. Medhzidov is not hard to outbox but almost impossible to outpower, Omarov has good skills with good power and size, Dychko is like Vitali Klitschko with less power, weaker chin. Those three could be as good as Povetkin-Chagaev-Ibragimov after Athens 2004.

    I think Joyce will go pro.He would make some impact on division.I think on his best day he would top 5 heavyweight.He is too open to punches,his defense isn't any good.He is similiar to Joshua in style but two times cruder.

    Another who I think will go pro,is Filip Hrgovic.Good combination puncher with slick defense at times,still needs time to develop,may pro ranks will do it.He can be open for punches at times but mentally is pretty good,that helps a lot.With his power,chin,combination punching and partialy good defense he can be top 3 heavyweight.

    Also I think Magomed Omarov could go pro.He doesn't show blistering form in amateur boxing as of late.So it will be tempting for him after Rio.He would be top 5 heavyweight with right coach and team.He has win over Medzhidov in last's seasons conclusion 2/1.

    I think Abdulakir Abdulaev is possibility but just that.He would make instant noise in division as other two I mentioned.If he would go pro he would be a top 5 heavyweight on his best day.But exciting to watch.

    Another possibility is Medzhidov.But I doubt it.He would have only 5 year pro careers at max, considering his style.

    Amateurs who will never turn pro I think is Clemente Russo,Tever Pulev,both pretty old for turning pro.

    Thanks. Those three and Filip Hrgovic as mentioned would be great additions. Plus Usyk lingering in the background ready to move up.
