    My favourite is between David Price or Seth Mitchell.

    Both those guys were seen as the future of the Division, Mitchell was supposed to be better than Wilder and Price was supposed to be better than Fury.

    I'll give my favourite to Price though as unlike Mitchell at least he had the guts to keep trying after he got exposed.

    Michael Grant and Tye Fields were good ones also.
    - - Legit prospects either mismanaged(Price) or found wanting at the higher level.

    Might as well demonize all of boxing with your logic.

    TBA champ Deyonce is the gift that keeps on giving in his era, so thanks for the reminder!

      I still can't make sense of how they got so many people caught up in the hype.
      Ortiz is a very good fighter and by no means a hype job. If you know boxing, there is no denying his skills

        Seth Mitchell was gonna be 'too athletic doe'' for the Klitschkos hahaha!

        Efe Ajagba is the recent one. I was always baffled by the hype. Cause I saw Ivan Dychko play with him at the Olympics

            He's beaten Cunningham who was top 10, Chisora who was top 10 twice and Hammer who was around top 10-15 at the time. Then beat Schwarz who was around the top 30, along with Wallin, Pajkic and Kevin Johnson, mugged em off and then has a bum like you call him a bum. That's the same as Whyte's resume pretty much and everyone calls him a top heavyweight. Doesn't even include his wins over some of the longest reigning champs ever.

Price showed more balls and guts in that fight than most will in a lifetime, War Gunslinger Forever!!!!
              That fight is still absolutely one of my favourite heavyweight wars.

As far as actual frauds go, Godley Harrison is the answer, dude couldn't even get past British level and shat his pants before every big fight
                Denis Boytsov is who you're thinking of, not Bachtov, he's a journeyman who no one has ever rated that highly.

                  Woops, yep, typed the wrong name you are right. I wonder whatever happened to Boytsov? I still haven't heard anything since the mob beat his ass down in Germany

                      Cunningham is a top 10 heavyweight??? Hahaha. I should just stop you right there. And are you really bragging about a win against Chisora? Chisora is 32-9. And Schwarz is rated number 33 in the world hahaa. Wallin is number 49 and he went 12 rounds and almost beat Fury on cuts. Take out Klitschko and Wilder, and the rest of his resume isn't even worth mentioning. And just because "everybody says he's number one" doesn't mean he is. You idiots are basing everything off one victory against a guy who also has fought bums for years hahha. And you bring up Whyte. Whyte has fought 6 guys in the current top 15. And Fury was too scared to fight him when he was the mandatory, to the point to where Fury was ready to drop his belt to duck him hahaha. This steroids cheat is a con man and a fraud
