    Firstly, I'm not from Ukraina. I don't know anyone from this country, and I don't want to speak about politics. Klitschko brothers are/were great champions, but just now there are three young and excellent boxers : Lomachenko, Postol and Usyk.
    What do you think about them ? Do you expect Usyk to be HW champion in two or three years ? What about Loma and Postol ?

    Usyk and Loma are P4P caliber talents, Postol IMO not as much but he's still an excellent 140 fighter, I think he gives anyone problems in that division.

    Gvozdyk too.:deal

    And Shabranskyy, Shelestyuk, Berinchyk. Skorokhod, and Spyrko deserve a wee bit of attention too.

    Loma is monster in feather weight. I think he can't be defeated in this division. Maybe it is the same situation in 130. Postol is very, very awkward, I would like see him against Broner and Crawford. Great question : will Usyk become champ in Heavy weight and heir of his compatriots Klitschko brothers ? I'm almost sure he will be undisputed champion in Cruiser very soon.

    Shelestyuk hasn't adapted that well to the pro game.

    No not quite but he looked very good in his last outing, against his best opponent to date.

    He'd score a shutout against Broner and beat Danny imo.

    Usyk has ATG potential. Loma has the ability, but Im not sure if he'll carry it as a pro. The rest are meh on the grand scheme of things.
