    FWIW Michael Hunter is gonna be a beast. Hopefully he gets with Roger Mayweather as both are made for each other.

    Another guy is Marcus Browne, but I think he is up to cruiserweight, although he is getting bigger every time I see him fight.

      I say this because guys like Wilder, Chambers, and others have the talent to be better than what they are but aren't pushing themselves. Fast Eddie has turned it around in the past couple of years, but that was only after coming to the ring looking like a fat @ss for the majority of his career.
      I'd agree with that. Though Chambers will always be a small HW and Wilder is just not that talented to begin with.

          as i mentioned Weightlifters vertical jump > Basketball players.

          Ice Hockey is more difficult than either of those you listed.

          They're no more special than any other sport. Also didn't Japan beat you guys in Baseball and didn't your "dream teams" in basketball struggle and/or lose to countries like Greece, Bosnia Herzegovina, Argentina, Serbia, Puerto Rico the last decade?

          The USA went almost 8 years without winning anything at international comp in basketball (until the 2008 olympics). You guys are great when competing at sports that only the USA plays like American Football.
          just like you are downgrading those sports that Americans dominate in simply because you want to believe that people from were ever the hell you are from are better athletes or just as good

          Weightlifters can't chance and adjust in the air as a basketball player can, sure they might be able to jump higher in just a regular jump for measurement but those in Basketball also are doing that with a ball in that hand and on top of that they have to actually put the ball in the basket

          how did this become about Countries though, we are talking about athlete vs athlete, sport vs sport, regardless of what country your are from, Basketball Players from ALL OVER THE WORLD are GREAT ATHLETES regardless of which country they are from, it just so happen that when it comes to basketball the US have more athletes, sure the US have lost in Basketball to other countries but also US wasn't always sending their best, they get Arrogant I guess and thought they could win Gold Medals with lesser talent

              Don't make me laugh. Maybe when the bro's retire, but while they're around, he gets destroyed.

                Honestly no sport is harder than the other. They are different disciplines that require different skill sets etc for each one. I don't get why people are always trying to make comparison as to which one is harder and who has the best athletes.

                  I'm not saying he beats either of the KBros but, that he's a raw young dedicated prospect that may or may not have success in his years to come. I like Deontay's attitude towards his sport (he seems to have a good work ethic and understanding of the process) and wish him success. I'm an optimistic about him...

                    I don't think he's tough enough. To me, he appears soft and easily manipulated.

                      both K bros have embarrassing losses. Anything is possible with them.
