Seems that the media here are building him up as the next big thing in boxing, another traveller boxer. Won his 11th fight last night, and comfortably doing so on points. Looked decent in the ring but his opponent wasn't doing a whole lot, and McCann was unable to finish him off. One to keep an eye on?
Fury’s promoter Frank Warren added: “Tyson, like myself, really does rate him. He has the ability to go all the way and become one of the superstars of British boxing.” Someone who both Frank and Tyson rate
He's talking about Dennis Mcann. A young, SBW, British prospect. He's definatly got potential but as of yet has not fought anyone of note. He's in the early stages of his development and all his 11 or so fights so far have been against opponents that are there not to offer too much resilience. I would class him as "one to watch" a prospect with potential. He seems to be doing everything correct that he has to bring to the table as an up n coming fighter and he has the luxury of a big promoter like Frank Warren totally backing him.
No doubt he's got lots to learn too. His amateur pedigree is stellar though and he looks really comfortable in the ring. I think he's going to be very good.
Very impressed with this skillset and movement but as Mark says he lacks power and/or doesn't set himself properly for punches . A tiny bit like Hughie Shades of Ali Fury. So i think he may struggle at world level unless he can develop a bit of pop. Good luck to the lad though.
