Who's the best young heavyweight?

[duffgun]

i have watched all but one of solis fight and i have to say that he seems to be getting worse. I think he should have gone to America and got a good trainer he also needs to get down to 220lb. he is enjoying germany to much, he can work his way to a title shot but thats it unless he sorts him self out. There are some good young heavyweights it will be interesting to see them fight each other. I am looking forward to povetkin chambers, I am not a big fan of povetkin but if he wins big against chambers i will be impressed, I will also be very impressed if chambers beats povetkin.

I think you hit the nail on the head with regards to Solis going to the USA instead of Deutschland.

Well aside from the obvious Peter......I really have high hopes for Solis.

Chazz Witherspoon has quietly become 21-0 but from what I've seen of him I don't think he's going to be anything too special.

Some people who saw the fight said Witherspoon got a gift decision vs. Releford. If he can't easily beat Releford, he's not much of a prospect.

Does Chazz Witherspoon use the "Can Opener"?

That's not a really smart way to look at it, Ibragimov got a draw against Austin, yet look at him now.

Yeah he is being led to the gallows. Wladimir will be the executioner.

But I get your point. Chazz might become something, maybe even as good as his cousin Tim.

Alexander Povetkin is the future of the heavyweight divison

subtle

The difference is, Austin had a huge reach advantage over Sultan, and was actually a fringe contender, ranked by the computers in the BoxRec and IBO top 30.

Releford is an "opponent", a club fighter who's lost to the same level of opposition as Austin has defeated. And Ibragimov should have won a close decision in his fight with Austin, while observers thought Releford deserved a win in his fight with Witherspoon.
