British based heavyweight prospect Roman Greenberg progressed his career nicely on Friday in Sheffield, England with an overwhelming points decision over former British champion Julius Francis. Francis, who has fought Mike Tyson, Vitali Klitschko, John Ruiz and holds a win over tonights title challenger Danny Williams could not compete with the younger and stronger Greenberg who originally hails from Israel but now lives and fights out of London. The British boxing establishment is buzzing about the prospects of Greenberg and those American journalists that have seen him have been duly impressed. Stay tuned for more on Greenberg as it happens.
