View Full Version : Most Promising Young British Prospect NaughtyRight89 11-22-2009, 08:08 PM Who do you fink will be our next quality world champion? NaughtyRight89 11-22-2009, 08:15 PM Ino some have alot more experiance than others, but im talking about the next quality and dominant world champion, not the first to be world champion. Asuming any of them do that is. I like Kell Brook meself, very classy and strong, can hit aswel. shame his fight with michael jennings had to be postponed, i would have liked to see how well he dealt with somebody of Jennings quality and see where he goes from there on. ShatteredGlass 11-22-2009, 08:50 PM I think James Degale has the most talent, but he is very raw at the moment and has a crap team about him. After that it's Brook and then Cleverly. and after that, if he gets in shape and puts some effort in, Tyson Fury. ShatteredGlass 11-22-2009, 08:51 PM Might I add, this young generation (including Khan who is only 22) is very promising, much better than the current one at least. Clegg 11-22-2009, 08:58 PM Cleverley looks good, but I'm not sure he has that extra dimension and there still some areas that need improvement. Having said that, he does seem to get better with each fight and is very young, so perhaps he'll develop further and surprise me. Haven't seen Bellew. Kell Brook is very talented, it's a shame that he's had some injury problems because wins over Mutley and Jennings would've led to him stepping up to the next level. As it is that will probably have to wait 6+ months. Haven't seen Gavin. I have a higher opinion of DeGale than most people. I don't think he's destined to fail or whatever, but he does need the right trainer to help him make the most of his talents. He's looks at his best when against opponents who are aggressive and want to win, so I think he should be matched against good fighters pretty much every fight. Fury will win a British title at some point, but will need to change 90% of what he does if he want to be world class. I don't think he's got what it takes. Apparently he turned down an offer to train with Manny Steward, which is crazy IMO. George Groves isn't on the list, but I think he's got a lot of potential. He's still a novice, but in a few years time he'll be getting a lot more attention.

He's still a novice, but in a few years time he'll be getting a lot more attention. Nathan Cleverly, right now is not fully commited to boxing, apparently in his last fight he barely even bothered training for it, so he is not looking his best. Kell Brook has natural talent, but its a shame he is in that division, @ 140 i think in a couple of years he could dominate. DeGale, people are expecting too much too soon from him, he needs to keep a low profile and keep chalking up the wins Tyson Fury, needs to lay off the Mcdonalds, in that mcdermott fight he looked in very odd shape, fat in the belly with little thin arms, he needs to be built like a Klitschko. And yes turning down Manny Steward was idiotioc. Fury seemed to be getting better every fight, and then his conditioning started going down, he lost the power in the jab and looked pants against Big Bad John. If he gets power and a jab, with his size and natural strength he will be a force, he also showed reasonable chops in the Mcdermott fight, John isn't a big puncher but still Fury took a lot square on the jaw from him. Silkstone 11-22-2009, 10:22 PM John Murray. I cannot stress this enough. Why was he left out of this list? Junito-Rulez 11-23-2009, 02:44 AM James De Gale and Kell Brook do. Fury is a hypejob. Dem Eyes 11-23-2009, 03:29 AM Gavin has the best chance out of any of them. Calza appy 11-23-2009, 06:57 AM I think Cleverly has the skills to go all the way, hes power seems to be improving all the time as well. Kell Brook will be a world champ as well. Im not a big fan of JDG, hes got talent, but ive got no time for big time charlies. Calza appy 11-23-2009, 06:58 AM John Murray. I cannot stress this enough. Why was he left out of this list? I think hes a bit one dimensional, i think Khan would box him to death! Still, hope he proves me wrong! Chunk. 11-23-2009, 08:21 AM Kell Brook........................ John Hue 11-23-2009, 08:29 AM George Groves should be on the list. His style is more suited to the pro game than amateurs trying to make the transistion to pro.I fancy he would beat DeGale. Sick/ 11-23-2009, 09:29 AM Cleverly and Degale Blairhoyle792 11-23-2009, 09:35 AM The following will win World Titles without question: Nathan Cleverly and Kell Brook others I think who have a great chance and who I like the look of is: Saunders and Gavin both fantastic body punchers and very come forward aggressive fighers. I don't know about DeGale yet. Another name not on that list who I also think will be a top star, and a fighter who has beat DeGale in the amatuers, is George Groves. NaughtyRight89 11-23-2009, 09:48 AM Both Murray and Grooves should be on the list i agree, mabey in front of Bellew. This was my first thread and staring with a hangover is no good ha. thats why i put the Others option in there, i new id miss out a few. S H O B O X 11-23-2009, 11:14 AM Fury will win a British title at some point, but will need to change 90% of what he does if he want to be world class. I don't think he's got what it takes.

He could have possibly been a sparring partner for Wlad K and thats some great experience. George Groves is a good addition , i think he'll go far .

It's easy to overlook a few names here and there, welcome to the forum mate. Really ? Fury is an idiot to turning down world class training like that . He could have possibly been a sparring partner for Wlad K and thats some great experience. George Groves is a good addition , i think he'll go far . Yeah, or at least that's what Fury claimed in Boxing News about a month ago. WhoreUs! 11-23-2009, 11:28 AM I voted seriously, when I should of voted Tyson Fury. :( Rocky... 11-23-2009, 12:26 PM George Groves should be on the list. His style is more suited to the pro game than amateurs trying to make the transistion to pro.I fancy he would beat DeGale. He gets ktfo by kenny anderson anyday of the week. Silkstone 11-23-2009, 01:16 PM I think hes a bit one dimensional, i think Khan would box him to death! Still, hope he proves me wrong! I agree with the first part of your statement, the man has no concept of defence whatsoever. That being said, I give him a good chance against Khan at lightweight, I believe John would be able to weather an early storm from Amir and then do some serious damage on the inside, and all he needs to do is tag Khan once... Murray's chin is solid. It's going to carry him a long way... maybe not to a world title, but he'll definitely be a contender in the years to come. NaughtyRight89 11-23-2009, 01:36 PM I cant really see it happening, but id love to see Murray put Kahn back where Prescott left him. alza1988 11-23-2009, 03:57 PM He gets ktfo by kenny anderson anyday of the week. http://sport.scotsman.com/boxing/Boxing-Kenny-Anderson-39as-good.5846191.jp cooper5 11-24-2009, 03:35 AM I like the potential of Degale, Saunders and Gavin. Brooks and Cleverly in my opinion have risen above prospect status and could be considered contenders. Fury(not my pick) gets a bad rap, but I still like him. He took a huge jump in class and though he was lucky to get the decision, stayed in there. When he signed to fight McDermott, I was sure he was going to have his butt handed to him. Well he almost did, but he showed me a hell of alot for a 8-0 heavyweight! Dem Eyes 11-24-2009, 03:55 AM John Murray. I cannot stress this enough. Why was he left out of this list? Murray is crap. Dem Eyes 11-24-2009, 03:58 AM Anderson isn't great either. Groves and DeGale would rip him a new one. Davros? 11-24-2009, 04:32 AM Brooks and Cleverly could win titles. And Fury really is a prat if he turned down the chance to train with Stewart makes it look like he doesnt want to put in the effort. Dirty Sanchez 11-24-2009, 11:25 AM To me, Kell Brook is the stand-out name from that list right now. He just has so much natural ability, so much confidence and looks completely above the level he's fighting at at the minute. I wish the Jennings fight would have gone ahead, could have been a great fight - one I fully expected Brook to come through as well. I'm a big Cleverly fan as well - he'll go far and improves every fight, his power is developing as well. It's too early to judge the Olympians, you can only say that they're all progressing as you'd hope they would at this stage - and I include Tony Jeffries in that. Groves looks a very good prospect. Basically, it's got the potential to be a very good generation for British Boxing. Tha_Greatest 11-24-2009, 11:27 AM Who do you fink will be our next quality world champion? Floyd Mayweather Jr, lol, nyahahahaha hookoutofhell 11-24-2009, 12:29 PM kell brook has a good look about him - he seems confident, patient and at home in the ring. he hs very good power, puts together good combinations and has very good timing. id like to see the brook vs jennings fight back on soon. cleverly is another very good fighter and one that has excelled since leaving the calzaghe gym, his power is improving and with it he has been able to incorporate good, solid body shots. his punches are accurate, well timed and lately hurtful. imo these 2 fighters are the ones who stick out, maybe its because they have slowly developed their games and now stand as legitimate domestic competition that could go further. as for the others gavin and billy joe are well suited to the pro ranks but all the lads listed above are very talented. NaughtyRight89 11-24-2009, 07:39 PM Floyd Mayweather Jr, lol, nyahahahaha ha funny.....NOT The_Demon 11-24-2009, 08:38 PM kell brook! Chunk. 11-25-2009, 05:28 AM He gets ktfo by kenny anderson anyday of the week. Kenny Anderson looks crap! Rocky... 11-25-2009, 08:22 AM Kenny Anderson looks crap! Well thats your opinoin, wait and see how kenny andersons carear turns out, anybody in boxing circles who has been around kenny anderson will tell you diffrently, hes a top prospect without a doubt, and now hes finally getting his **** sorted, youll see how good he really is. wXh. 11-25-2009, 09:11 AM Haroon Khan Estar 11-25-2009, 11:18 AM Gavin & Grooves are the best prospects :) NaughtyRight89 11-25-2009, 02:17 PM Haroon Khan Haha. James Dickenson from are gym the salisbury in liverpool has beaten Haroon 3 times at 52kg. ****eee The Number 6 11-25-2009, 02:34 PM I voted DeGale, i think he has star quality and has the tools to pick up a major belt. I think Kell Brook shows promise but i think he could just fall short because of the ammount of talent that is at welterweight. That division is stacked. Mrpedigree 11-26-2009, 05:23 PM Not no mention of Billy Joe Saunders in the pole or on this thread yet hes preformed just as well if not better than the other two Olympians !? Like the way he fights and hes got the best trainer imo:boxing: GhostfaceKillah 11-26-2009, 05:27 PM Kell Brook or Anthony Small. Mrpedigree 11-26-2009, 06:00 PM Kell Brook or Anthony Small. John your back mate :)...some green 4 you ! GhostfaceKillah 11-26-2009, 06:23 PM John your back mate :)...some green 4 you ! Hi mate i'm back, all be it with an Alt, will try my hardest to get my original account back online. Sir Tom Jones 11-26-2009, 08:19 PM got to represent nathan clev. lives on the same steet as me. went to the same school as me. played in the same football team as me. alza1988 11-27-2009, 02:23 AM Wonder what's happening with Appelby as well. gingeralbino 11-27-2009, 02:41 AM Ive said it before and ill say it again Lindsay and McCloskey. Irish/British dont care what u call them - going by how much both have improved in the last 18 months, they will make it. Lindsay just needs a lot more ring time than he's been getting. alza1988 11-27-2009, 02:46 AM Craig McEwan looks as if he could go far as well training at the wildcard .He's 27 tho but still looks like a good prospect because he's getting the right training . http://sport.scotsman.com/boxing/Craig-McEwan-follows-Pacquiao39s-lead.5863519.jp hammerhiem 11-27-2009, 04:23 AM Kell Brook looks the most likely to emerge at world level soon but he can only win a title at 154, 147 is way to stacked right now and i doubt Berto who he might be able to beat will touch him with a barge pole. Of the really young ones Billy Joe Saunders has the most natural Pro style, Degale is very elusive but unless he mixes it up better and/or develops 1 punch KO power he won't go all the way IMO. I'm not sure which top trainer could develop him Roach doesn't do well with defencive fighters. I'd also like to point out that they are trying to get my boy Jason Booth a World title shot, he won't win but the guy deserves at least a chance to try. |
