    Dubois and Hrgovic for me too.

    Both have already shown a number of attributes that make a champion.

    Good point. 3-4 years and he's cooked, probably.

    When all is said and done Dubois will remembered alongside the likes of Harrison and Price. Insanely hyped British heavyweight hopefuls who failed to live up to the hype.

    Dainier Pero is the next big thing.

    Mark my words, he's gonna stay amatuer for a few years, win some Olympic metal, leave Cuba, and go on to be an ATG.

    Obviously Brits rules the current HW division with an iron fist and the UK is the epicentre of HW boxing and we will very likely be ruling the next generation too what with the young bloods we've got making huge waves now like DDD. However, I'm going to go out on a limb and predict that we will be dominating the sports glamour division for many years to come because the conveyor belt of talent we produce is seemingly never ending and obviously the iron chin, ferocious punching power, next level skill and that steely determination which is synonymous with British fighters will take you a long way in this game.

    Out of the current crop Dubois has impressed the most, plus he’s only 22 and still learning. If he can take a good punch he’s going to be hard to beat.

    They even sent one of their own in Tom Aspinal to dominate the UFC HW division. It wasn't easy sacrificing a young boxing prospect but it had to be done on behalf of the British invasion.

    This hungry young UK lion hasn't registered on my radar yet but don't be surprised if he stays at the top for a very long time when he inevitably ascends the summit.

    The Twitch Hitter looks to be the most promising of the up and comers right now. A bit rough around the edges but very powerful and has taken out some tricky/durable opposition thus far. Extremely intimidating as well, gives off pronounced Vitali vibes.
