    A post on another thread, but it seems right to add it on to this fantastic thread.

    What a fantastic prediction that I could see becoming reality.

    American HWs are so over protected and matched softly that they tend to fail when they step up a level to European level.
    Look at the level that Seth Mitchell and D Wilder are fighting at in the amount of fights they have had and then look at how it is done in Europe with the sink or swim attitude to HW boxing

    In Tyson Furys first 19 fights he fought undefeated 16-0 Pajkic, undefeated 14-0 Chisora, undefeated 13-0 Nascimento, undefeated 12-0 Power, McDermott twice and M Rogan.

    In 19 fights Derek Chisora has fought undefeated 14-0 Fury, undefeated 16-0 Helenius, D Williams, S Sexton twice, V Klitschko and D Haye and had agreed to fight W Klitschko

    Robert Helenius in 17 fights has fought L Brewster, A Levin, S Peter, S Liakhovich, D Chisora and undefeated 12-0 G Tony

    Kubrat Pulev in 17 fights has fought 27-0 Ustinov, 32-1 Dimitrenko, P Vidoz, D Guinn, M Skelton in only his 5th fight, in just his 3rd fight he was fighting a 17-2 fighter.

    This shows how much tougher HWs are matched in Europe and D Price is following this same sort of tough schedule like T Fury has.
    Due to this, these HWs are prepared and experienced when they step up a level and that is where I think the system has failed American HWs.

    It is a very real possibility that Price and Fury become the bosses of the HW division

    Pulev's sitting on a mandatory shot so I don't see this happening, pity. This will be a huge fight going by past AM experience and recent sparring.

    I would like to see him fight Chisora, Fury and Haye in massive British fights. If he comes through those then he can take on a Klitschko if they are still around, if not whichever other European is ruling the HW Division. Maybe a US Heavyweight will appear out of nowhere by then .....
