do you think he will be a legitimate contender. he looked imressive in his victory over mccline, and showed some heart. he has some good skills, but he might be a bit small for some of the super heavyweights
brock will definantly be a contender in the near future. all he has to do is schedule a fight against a more established boxer. he would probably fit in at light heavyweight, i don't know if he could compete as well at heavy but we will see.Brock is rated # 7 on Boxrec The 3 above him are already title holders.
Others are: Rahman is already fighting Barrett. That only leave Peter and Whitaker. I already mentioned why he shouldn't fight Peter (read my post above) What "he has to do is schedule a fight against a more established boxer" are you talking about? Boxers don't "schedule" their own title shots.
Perhaps what you mean to say is, he needs more fights against quality opposition to better establish himself.

may be a bit small...may not be an Ali or Tyson...
BUT
unlike many up and comers...he is a welcome addition to the division...heart, courage, will, combinations, decent pop, decent speed, confidence, smart, has a head on his shoulders...
I totally agree!
There are Punchers and there are Boxers..
I would put Brock in a same category as Byrd and Toney.
Peter would have to join Tyson and is a different ball player.
Peter Vs. Brock would be a wrong fight! They are both great prospects and there is no need to eliminate one so early in their carrier. Maybe one day when they are both title holders, this would be a good match up. But right now, they bring the new excitement to the HW division, so why shoot one down?

All I know is Brock beat McCline more convincingly than Byrd...
and his won was not controversial AT ALL
if it was a 12 round fight he may have had a chance of stopping him
