    They all look a heck of a lot better than Washington.

    Once they will fall to ring floor fight after fight,there will be trouble.

    I would automatically cut off from any list any prospect under 6'3''.

    This is just my opinion, but i'm fairly sure nobody under that size could become a dominant (keyword: dominant) heavyweight champion in the future.

    Hell, we have a new Valuev coming from china, Taishan Dong, that guy is something like 7 foots tall, there's too much size disadvantage, too much.

    Damn, this guy is listed as 6'9 1/2 :patsch

    One of those giants is going to beat Wlad if he stands around too many years :think

    Dominic Breazeale.

    He have hands up all the time style and relentless pressure fortifying it.Altough,he brawls most of the time.He can slip punch or two,but his defense are poor.His chin helps a lot,when punches goes through the guard.He has good workrate for his body frame.His power is decent,he can hurt his current opposition but,I don't see him repeating it at the highest level.His reach is hepfull to him,because he punches with precision.

    Has ko win over Lenroy Thompson.Also wins over Brett Rather,Jonathan Hamm and Ed Latimore.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZkYQvcpAWC8.This shows,he can finish his opponent off,once he is badly hurt.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s9au5RAexJo&list=PLCThX77UJfk9z0mpW9MBGPIGPdTPljzrq&index=27.Here he repeatedly is hurting his opponent,but can't finish him off,because he spend too much energy on punching.
