    Isn’t Joyce like 33? Too old to be considered a prospect

        Somehow the Gold Medal Winner with wins in the Amatures/Olympic wins over most of these guys is the most underrated of this Group but he is the most athletic and most SKILLED OVERALL of that group IMO
        Amateurs is a completely different beast.

          BTW Americans Efe is NOT an American or African American.

          He's a proud Nigerian and doesn't get down with your culture (I. E he's a decent human being)

            Im not sure yet I like DuBois age he has plenty of time to improve.Yoka has great size and is maybe the most athletic but still raw(as he and rest should be)Efe I might pick if they all fought now he is athletic too and can punch and most Africans have a good chin.(its not racist im colorblind esp with boxing).Really a lot of good heavy prospects Joyce is stiff but seems heavy handed and takes a good shot but slow and not much defence.But you can go a long way at heavy with just a great chin and a good punch.He might be the Mercer of this era he turned pro late too.Look forward to see how they all turn out more the better for sport.I love prospects.

              Most top AMs become top pros or maybe most top pros were top AMs.Anyways your right its not a guarantee some guys you can just see don't have pro styles but have been good AMs.Yoka at 1st I thought he was the later very athletic but seemed to be lacking power and looked lost inside.Then I think it was his last before "his break"that he seemed to holding his feet better and showed some snap.Hope he turns out along with all the rest the more the merry for sport.ESP HEAVY'S

                  Biggest difference at heavyweight is going to be the smaller gloves and lack of headgear. Lots of HW’s have good amateur runs and when they turn pro they discover they have no jaw (David Price and Audley Harrison come to mind)

                    Yeah more Rounds in the Pros which favors Yoka even more IMO

                      I agree he's unfairly overlooked just because people are sour about some of the shady decisions he received in the ams. His technique is very smooth and he's a good gameplanner. I slightly prefer Hrgovic but Yoka is my #2 of those listed

                      Ajagba and Dubois are way rawer than the others. They could be awesome, they could be complete duds. Can't say yet
