BUMP. @HW Derek Chisora. He's not winning any titles, he's the guy to get to the belt. @LHW. Seems Badou Jack's best days may be past him. Very good boxer, but went 1-1-2 last 4 fights. Not sure if that cut will reoccur, plus he is a notoriously slow starter. @SMW Caleb Traux good name to have on the resume. He beats solid comp, but will never beat best in his division. Anthony Dirrell. After what Benavidez did to him, can't see him winning any kind of title in this division. he can't drop down & no way he moves up to be successful. Totally a bite-down fight where David took everything Ant had to give- and he had some moments. Anthony may beat a top 10'er but he will never beat a titlist again, unless they all vacate simultaneously. @LW I predict Robert Easter will become a gatekeeper if he continues to fight. IMO, Somebody in his camp doesn't have faith in his power. @ 5'11 and staying at LW? Loma would chop him down to 5'7. He moves up , he gets thrashed. Good enough & tall enough to beat top 20 fighters. Not strong enough, durable enough to beat the elite. Beat Easter to get to a title shot.
Carlos takam Dereck Chisora Christian Hammer David price Dominic Breazeale Artur spilzka These are what I’d class as gatekeepers at least at heavyweight level anyhow
