    LOL!! Rydell is better than most Euro prospects not named Dubois.

    The UK hwys aren't exactly tearing it up right now. People had the same tone about Ruiz after the Paker fight.

    Franklin wasnt out classed and Rydell (the #1 ranked US prospect back then) has had to fight a juiced up James Toney so Frankilns power was never going to overwhelm Booker.

    Booker was never bum and got discounted like Ruiz because of his shape. Too many fight fans fall in love with the workout warriors like Joshua and ignore fight skills.

    Franklin just needs to worry about wins and let the KOs come naturally. He's needs to take a Larry Holmes approach to boxing and just win fight by whats necessary and not what pleases the crowd.

    People will only appreciate James skills with continued success. If he tries to do too much to early then he's going to lose fights like his up coming one by underestimating his opponent.

      Things are not looking good for American fighters in the future.deontay is the last of a dying breed.if America wants to compete in the future I'm sad to say there going to have to be taller and bigger and get a good roid cycle like the European boxers.if not it want be a equal playing field
