    If there was a HW prospect WBSS..

    I was listening to an interview with Sauerland the other week in which he mentioned briefly how a HW tournament for the new HW's on the scene would be fun.

    If there was a HW prospect WBSS, who would you include and who would you pick to win?

    Some possible names :

    1. Yoka
    2. Joyce
    3. Ajagba
    4. Hrgovic
    5. Dubois
    6. Gorman
    7. Teslenko
    8. Dychko, Milas

    The HW prospect scene isn't my forte, so I'm not really familiar with the last few names on the list but found them to be mentioned a fair bit when reading about prospects.
    You guys will probably know other names who fit the criteria better.

    But, who would you tab to come out on top?

      It’s hard to tell, they are all fighting push overs, until they get punched back you never know..

      I like Dubois, exciting style etc.. he’s a few years off, fish eyes will have him fighting nobodies for a long time yet

        Hrgovic is the best of the HW prospects, he's the clear stand out imo. Followed by Teslenko and Dychko.

        I don't rate Dubois and Yoka at all.

        Arslanbek Makhmudov, Vladyslav Sirenko, Sergey Kuzmin, Rostislav Plechko are other good HW prospects you should check out.

          Their promoters will NEVER allow it and I understand why because they all feel they have the next big thing in the Heavyweight Division and will build them up separately. Also don't think Promoters are dealing with Kalle Sauerland after how this current season of WBSS is going and the allegedly money issues and delays.

              Just looking at your list its crazy how European dominated the HW division is becoming. Does the US have any good HW prospects at all?

                  I'm not up on as many of these guys who's name I couldn't pronounce with a week to study saying it so I won't throw a list that'd be lacking, but f#ck yea I'd love a HW prospect WBSS.

                  I don't love them giving them the same big ass trophy doe. I think it should be considered a lesser tournament or you make the WBSS look lesser as well.

                  That said with these money problem rumors who knows if the WBSS will even see a 3rd season. Obviously rooting for it, but they need to be paying cats their money too.

                    Id say its a draw between Gorman and Sirenko , DDD is a close third. not to familiar with most of the hard to pronounce names but I think Sirenko is the most equally balanced. he seems to have that polished look to him while the others don't. Anyone in the top 15 really isn't a prospect to me.
