Hey Canada, you've got a homegrown heavyweight prospect.

Yes, I agree Drew, Custio Clayton is the best prospect from that shortlist I wrote. I heard he's gonna make huge step ups in 2017 so by the end of the year to his team wants him to get in a title eliminator in the deep welterweight division

But MVC is from the english side of Canada, and over there the media completely ignores the sweet science

Let me give you an example, Artur Beterbiev is gonna fight in Gatineau QC, just a bridge away from Ottawa, ON. They held the press conference to announce the fight in Ottawa, and there were 8 french language media outlets that came from Montreal area and only 1 english media from Ottawa, although many others received an invitation to come but they decided to ignore it

And Beterbiev will be the face of boxing in Canada in short time

 

I know Mississauga puts on well attended shows, and back when Steve Molitor was fighting, they drew well at Casino Rama. But in general, boxing isn't followed that closely anywhere but Quebec. Rooting for Clayton, though...since he comes from my neck of the woods (Nova Scotia) and is by all accounts a pretty good guy.
