Rank these HW prospects - Joyce, Ajagba, Sirenko, Dubois

Right now

Ajagba
Joyce
Dubois
Sirenko

Of these, Close between Ajagba and Joyce. Ajagba is just ahead imo as he has improved quite a lot since the Olympics and scored a nice win over Wallisch at the weekend

Joyce has done well so far. Liking his workate and engine. He's older so he's a contender, but might need to improve his defense.

Dubois is a puncher and have been mildly impressed by him though Lartey gave him a little trouble. DD looks a little basic right now, but is improving and has been tested a little.

Sirenko has crushed everyone he's met, but hasn't been tested at all. He looks to have some potential, but I'd like to see him go 5 or 6 rounds at least. He has to be at the bottom atm until he ups the opposition.

 

How old is Joyce, like 40?
He's no prospect.

 

YOU are at the bottom.


To the OP’s question... Teslenko and Hrgovic are the top prospects right now. Sirenko still has some work to do but will be a force. He’s already ****ing up hype jobs like Dubois in sparring so that’s a good sign

 

Used to think Teslenko was a top 5 prospect, them his last two fights completely changed my mind, I suggest you watch them if you haven’t yet. He’s got some pretty significant limitations- I don’t think he’ll make into the top ten.

 

Hrgovic isn't a prospect either , he and Joyce are proven guys already and have a rare commodity which is a great track record in the ams and defeating guys who were once top 10 not long ago in such few fights as Joyce .

Hrgovic himself out boxing Wilder years ago and would probably have taken the WBC title had he turned pro sooner.

Teslenko will struggle with punchers. He looks good now but I see he's going to struggle when he steps up.

 

If it were on resumes I'd swap Dubois and Joyce around.

 

Not for me, Cojanu, Johnson and Lartey probably even beat Stiverne now.

 

Yeah I was a bit disappointed in his last fight but I still think he’s young enough to make the adjustments and he has underrated hand speed. Very sharp puncher.

 

Hmmm can't agree with that. Cojanu is awful who would be on par with Daniel Martz if he didn't land a random title shot against Parker, Johnson never tries to win and I'd still back Stiverne over Lartey. Joyce also defeated Lewison in his first fight, Kiladze and won the Commonwealth title in his 4th fight.

 

I would swap the top two on your list based on volume /accuracy

 

Coach Ronnie is back in the HW field with a beast in Ajagba!!!!

 

The more important question is who are they going to fight after they have all fought Kevin Johnson. They can't all fight Chisora.

Wilder on the comeback trail?

 

He looks good so far, yes.
