    Callum Johnson is the UKs best LHW

    Exceptional power, decent skills.

    I think he KOs both Yarde and Buatsi tbh

    None of them are anything special at all.

      Word.

      All solid but all flawed

      Yarde is the most durable but is basic and unimaginative

      Buatsi is the most skilled but seems to lose focus. He’ll be elite one minute and look poor the next

      Johnson can **** and comes to fight

        It's a shame with Yarde as he has physical ability but he started boxing at 19, it's actually foolish to expect him to compete with the elite when you consider that fact.

        Theres not really any other sports you can "pick up" as a 19 year old and make it to the top.

          Yeah, I'd like to see a tournament between Yarde, Johnson, Buatsi and even Lyndon Arthur (already 1 -1 with Yarde). Wouldn't be surprised at all if Johnson comes out on top.

              ^ This is, of course, what should happen, maybe throw Richards in the mix too... sadly might as well wait for hell to freeze.

                Yeah Richards is a good one, perhaps replace Arthur with him? You're absolutely right though, this will never happen.

                  It’s Callum Smith. Johnson can **** but he’s quite crude and easy to hit.

                  As of now I’d rank them:
                  1. Smith
                  2. Johnson
                  3. Yarde
                  4. Buatsi
                  5. Azeez- look out for this guy, he done incredibly well against Beterbiev in sparring from what I’ve heard.

                    I’d love to see Richards vs Azeez two absolute iron men. I think that’s a FOTY contender if it ever happens.
