    You can ad a few more to the euro prospect list:
    Helenius, he has only 15 fights, he's still a prospect/chalenger
    Wallisch
    Pulev
    Bogdan Dinu
    Glazkov
    Edmund Gerber
    Dennis Boytsov
    Arur Spilka
    Krzysztof Zimnoch ( defeated Deontay Wilder as an amateur)


    I wanted to see a healthy American vs European rivalry, doesn't seem like it will happen:-(

    I noticed Zimncoh, but man, this guy has NOTHING on the horizon. He needs to decide if he is actually a professional fighter.

    Artur Szpilka is the guy im keepin an eye on. He gained a **** ton while in jail and now is a heavy. First fight back he KO'd the guy cold in the 1st rd so good to know that power came with the pounds packed on. He is fighting on Wach-McBride scorecard so he's getting the fights in. Only 22 too!

    I think he's pulling a Cleverly. He's in college if I'm not mistaken

    ^ Ouch. My back filling came loose just WATCHING that KO!

    I agree with you, Szpilka is a guy to keep an eye on. Massive power, (his KO of Wawrzyk is the definition of "1 punch power") and looks like he has goods skills / good defense.

    - Hard to say for sure, as an ACTUAL tomato can might have given him more trouble than Hadziagan, but still he moves well and has great balance.

    Plus, for an Eastern European, his name is relatively easy to spell!

    Yeah, I'm kinda wondering if he retired or something.

    Zimnoch has good skills but hasnt' fought in a long ass time and still has nothing lined up. It's a real shame, he was really impressive in the fights I did see him have in Chicago.

    Crap, just catching up on Szpilka now since I haven't really seen him before. I really like this guy's future if he gets his act together (i.e. stays out of prison). Fast hands, good technique, obvious power.

    Who is next Golota? We the fans like to watch nutcase Pole Heavyweights fight. Maybe that Szpilka can fill the void Golota left behind. He just got out of prison, that is showing a good potential. A good sign.

    Have you seen the other guys in that range fight? Better than guys like Wilder, Gerber and Abdulasemov. A level down from Helenius and Pulev, sure, but Helenius and Pulev are also much older than Perez and Fury.

    You may be on to something. He and Golota are apparently good friends. I heard Golota visited Szpilka in prison and the two ended up fighting.

    Szpilka was discovered while fighting on the streets, with other soccer hooligans.
