    do you think bj saunders will get down to welterweight? he's been fighting as a chubby super middle since turning pro.

    Canada- Nobody. hahaha

    actually maybe Troy Ross and Lemieux if he ever steps up his comp level

    Canada has been such a shitty boxing country since the mid 90's.

    Australia.

    Looking pretty thin here too.

    Someone said that Jackson Asiku is a prospect worth watching. He's solid but I don't know that he can compete with the best.

    Bowie Tupou is also mentioned occasionally. Again he has some promise but I think he is more like an Aussie Tyson Fury... all hype and yet nothing proven.

    In Ireland it is the best bunch of boxers we have had in years. I cant remember a time were we had some top prospects breaking into the pro ranks and doing as well as they are.

    Tyson Fury? A Prospect?

    No... he wouldnt even be good enough to beat Valuev imo.

    Again, Paul McCloskey is Irish. Can you really call Rendall Munroe a prospect? I think he is too far along in his career to be called a prospect, I think he has gone as far as he can.
