Robert Helenius. Size, good jab, heavy heavy hands.

Denis Boytsov, decent amateur record and good promising HW. He needs to fight tougher opponents tho. Maybe a Samuel Peter.

Only Problem with Boytsov is his small height and his heart/back problems he had when he was a teenager.

I dont think the future HW's will be 6"1, I think 6"4+ is the minimum, but we will see

I still think you need a good pedigree to bw a future champ, an olympic gold/silver medal is a must.

David Price. 6'8 extremely skillful and can punch, should start stepping up in competition soon and we will learn just how far he can go, but looks good so far...

He was my next choice after Helenius. Minuses with him include lack of size and problems with his hands. Universum posted a silly workout video of him skipping around in the gym the other day. What are they doing with this guy's career???

Price and Helenius both have one-punch KO power.

I also like Mike Perez but fear his size may hamper him against bigger heavyweights,

I will tell you more about Tyson Fury after the Chisora fight, LOL. I'm thinking good things are in store, but this one will tell the tale.

Yes.

I'm eagerly anticipating this fight, we'll learn whether Fury has real potential or not. Chisora is a strong puncher with some craftiness and skill.

Иванов Никита is going to be future HW champ: he is in amateurs now and will have good choice for 2012 olympic games:
