      What's interesting is there are a few good, young heavies coming through.

      Hrgovic, Gorman, Yoka, Dubois, Joyce.

      It will be interesting if these prospects face off in the next year or if they will all attempt to climb the rankings fighting journeymen.

        dont think those guys will face each other early on.
        From an economical viewpoint, it makes much more sense to build up those fights, especially for the olympic guys, because they can sell the olympic rivalry angle.

        Cant remember the last time two unbeaten prospects at heavyweight faced off against each other with nothing at stake.

        Those guys are going to face gatekeepers and fringe contenders. guys like hammer, helenius, duhaupas, szpilka, price.

          You're probably right.

          I think 1 year from now however, all these guys will be in the top 15-20 of the orgs. It will be hard to avoid each other as time goes on.

              Joyce is not a prospect, stop it.

                What is he then? a journeyman, gatekeeper? he fits the definition due to lack of pro fights. Definitely a prospect at HW (a person regarded as likely to succeed).

                Succeed could mean just fight a for a world title and have a decent pro career for the next 4-5 years.... or fight a high level, get a top ten ranking etc etc he's definitely a prospect.

                  Prospects aren't ranked in top 10 in sanctioning bodies. Joyce is a top 10 guy ,all the interviews ive seen no boxing pundit considers him a prospect due to his experience too.

                    First of all Joyce is 33 years old, you said he's young like Dubois who's 21, you must be deluded. Second, Joyce is ranked in top 15 so he is a contender. Doesn't matter how you spin it kid, Joyce is not a prospect. Glad I could educate you
