    I've been a Yaqubov truther for a minute. He's a shoe in for a belt at 130 as far as I'm concerned. Joselito Velasquez at 112 is another. Nazurt Sabirov is less of a sure thing at 168, but I really like what I've seen from him.

    Kurbanov looks like hot **** and at SWW and no one seems to be talking about him.

    Murodjon Akhmadaliev got a pretty crazy upset win in his 8th fight at SBW.
    He's a unified champ and he is barely rated in his division, and a fun fighter.
    One to keep an eye on.

    I've seen a lot of Sadriddin. He's a spitfire. Needs to settle down a little. Convinced he can blow anybody out for the time being. Still young. Artem Oganesyan is also touted as a SWW with the same promotion. Will be interesting to see who pans out better.

    Israil is a force of nature in there. His style is so weird to me. He seems like he pieced together a bunch of stuff he liked seeing other people do and the parts don't really fit together coherently. His power and durability are something to behold though.

    Kurbanov is a fun stylist. I like seeing a guy built like Lebedev do a shoulder roll. Not sure he's got what it takes to get to the top though. Tischenko is on a lot of those RCC cards with him and Yaqubov. That guy is a 6'5 southpaw at CW. He's got a title written all over him.

    MJ already had his coming out party really. I expected him to outbox Roman more soundly than he did. I was surprised how good Roman looked tbh. First time I've seen him really embrace a process and try to box.

    Super long shot. Willis Meehan ... some year down the track could make some waves.

    What do you see there? Just think his power's legit?
