    What to make of these Heavyweights?????

    Tyson Fury
    Malik Scott
    Seth Mitchell
    Mike Perez
    Denis Boytsov

    We already know Povektin is pretty good and would have some sort of shot against Vitali or Wlad.

    But, what do you make of these guys??? Do you think they'll become good and legit threats, or no????

    I think Seth Mitchell is the greatest prospect out of these.

        I think Scott has by far the best skills. Had it not been for his injury, we would have heard of him by now. He's still got quick hands, pretty good feet, but he doesn't pack a big punch, which may be his downfall.

        I just think Seth Mitchell is overrated. I am sorry, I don't see it. Perez, he kind of reminds me of a present day version of Mike Tyson, only not as good obviously. He fights a lot like a Liston or a Tyson. Boytsov looks pretty good, but I'd like to see him fight Chisora, Helenius, or something like that.

        Fury has the best win out of these, beating Chisora convincingly, but something tells me that Tyson Fury is going to get beat down if he fights a Klitschko. He just looks like an overweight bum, I don't know. He looked alright against Chisora and he has size, but I just don't know.

          Scott has the most but less time and I'd sooner watch Seth Mitchell fight.

            Seth Mitchell will probably come out in the future better than the rest, but I would say watch this space with Tyson Fury.

              I actually like Tyson Fury.

              He's not really talented but he has a decent jab and can create an exciting fight. His defence is poor but it really makes it more exciting.

              However, my biggest fault with him (aside from his skills and defence) is how he plainly ducked one of the best prospects in the world...David Price.

              That said, I'm sure Mick Hennessey want's to protect his investment and get some money out of him while he can.

                I think the best HWs include:

                The Klitschkos
                Alexander Povetkin
                Luis Ortiz
                Chris Arreola
                Magomed Abdusalamov
                Kubrat Pulev
                Ruslan Chagaev

                Under age 30:

                David Price
                Dereck Chisora
                Mike Perez
                Seth Mitchell
                Tyson Fury
                Edmund Gerber
                Vyacheslav Glazkov
                Michael Wallisch
                Ondrej Pala

                  Boytsov has the most potential to make an impact as an exciting ko artist but he is too small for either Klitschko but he is young enough to wait and gain experience along the way. If he can add a little bit more speed to his power he could be great to watch. I like that they are taking him slow but still getting him a lot of fights. I believe he is only 25 now, Tunney?

                    I like Seth's power but you can tell he is a football player first and boxer second by how he has to think before he throws his bombs. He isn't naturally fluid with his punching but if he can fix this he will be much lest predictable in the ring.
