    Of all the heavyweights under age 28, who has the best potential?

    I think Helenius and Wilder are the best up-and-comers, and I see potential in Glazkov and Gerber as well.

    imo helenius, but he should improve his stamina, balance, footwork, speed and he should drop wegner and get a good coach

    Helenius is my pick from above. Price is also one to watch, although he isn't on the list.

    i dont know how old he is, but i like bermaine stiverne.
    he looked really good against kerston manswell, early this year. the ray austin fight was a good learning fight, which will help him.
    he could win a title, providing the klitschko's are both retired.

    When you're 55, 27 seems damn young !
    Also, consider the ages of the top dawgs, (Wlad 35, Vits, 40)
    Even Povetkin is in his 30's.

    Evander Holyfield is the best up and coming heavyweight, regardless of age. EHoly will be the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world....AGAIN! Mark my words.......:lol:.

    Helenius, of course. He shouldn't even be on that list since he's proven contender, and the rest are still tomato-beating prospects.

    Of the rest, my eye is on Glazkov & Wilder. Glazkov needs better management & Wilder needs better training, but both look like future champs to me.


    I used to support Boytsov, but not after his last, dismal performance.

    Chisora & Fury are both jokes. The rest I never heard of.
