Yep Sutherland is the man I reckon. Big strong fast. See if he can carry it off when he steps up in class. If he can I reckon we have a real star in the guy.
Define prospect... If your meaning 10 fights or less I like Jamie Coyle, Billy Joe Saunders or Jack Arnfield and Brian Rose. If your talking 10-20 I'd say Darren Barker and if your talking what they have achieved thus far in comparison to what they will achieve, has to be Kell Brook...
I don't think Kell is going too far above European level. That chin in the air style will not work for him against good pressure fighters. He does not even have the blistering speed or reflexes to pull that off. And I've a feeling his power only looks extraordinary against these glass chinned fighters. I think he'd lose to an average welterweight prospect like Soto Karas. The best are Stephen Smith and Jamie Cox. Overall Warren has the best including the Olympians.
For me Jamie Cox is the best prospect in Britain at the moment, I've been pretty big on him since his amateur days and the kid just looks better and better with each fight. Calm, controlled, technically adept. Of all the "big name" prospects (Olympians, etc) I think Sutherland is the pick of the bunch. Seems the most suited to the pro style both physically and attitude wise. Gavin and Saunders may do pretty well too, but I think Sutherland has more potential to be world class. Also I believe Martin Ward has just turned pro too. Everyone raved about him in the amateurs and the kid is good, but for me his younger brother is even better, John Ward. I think he's only about 16 or 17 at the moment and I think he was at 64kg last time I saw him box (boxes out of Repton). If John turns pro he has a hell of a lot of potential to go pretty far.
I look forward to seeing more of Cox and Sutherland. Not sure how far Frankie Gavin will go but I have a feeling we're gonna see him in a lot of tear ups.
