    Joe Julio maybe? Also,allll my little big men:Arce,Viloria,Montiel,Calderon,Bautista,they deserve as much if not more credit,have more skill and are more exciting to watch than most weight classes but are not given the credit they deserve due to their size!!!! Watch them people,you won't be disappointed!!!!

    Mark my words, Anthony Smalls - British Light middleweight.

    If you watched David Haye's last fight you may have seen him on the televised undercard comfotably knock out a super middleweight and in style. He has cat like reflexes, a stance you wont believe (and most will hate) and dances around his opponents. He's an entertainer to, just watch his ring entrances - Scream masks and getting down to James Brown.

    to the Game to. Joel Julio is gonna be a force to be reckoned with and needs exposure fast.

    Good Boxer - I hope we see alot more of him

    Stole the show, cuz Haye although did the job, seems to me wont be able to cut it with the top boys, even if they are 2nd rate......

    I train at the same Gym Anthony was an amateur at and he often comes back to say hello to us guys and spar with some of his old opponents (who are all pulling the "if he turned pro why the fwock didnt I" routine lol). I still remember the first fight I saw of his, I'd seen him spar so was expecting the speed, but the punch he unleashed on this guy (in an ABA south east final) knocked the guy down, guy got up and flew back down face first. As an 11 year old I was in awe and Ive been hooked on boxing ever since.

    srry, buts he just a cheap copy of Naseem
    When he misses he always falls off balance, he won't make it at the top level

    Paul Williams, a tall, rangy guy who can fight at welterweight or junior middleweight and has both speed and power, great conditioning, a varied attack with jabs, hooks and uppercuts, an incredible work rate and excellent inside fighting skills for a slender guy. I'm not sure about his chin yet, but if his chin is any good he's almost a sure bet to become a belt holder within a year or 2.

    Tye Fields:

    http://boxrec.com/boxer_display.php?boxer_id=015663

    an enormous heavyweight, perhaps the only one around that wouldn't look like a midget next to Valuev, and who has a good record. I've been told that he's slow, but how fast do you need to be when you're 6'9", weigh around 265-275 lbs. and have little if any extra weight on you? Kevin McBride is another giant heavyweight that is more or less in the spotlight right now, but my sense is that Fields is better than McBride in almost every way.

    Tomasz Adamek, a 1st-rate light heavy:

    http://boxrec.com/boxer_display.php?boxer_id=014883

    and Paul Briggs:

    http://boxrec.com/boxer_display.php?boxer_id=015669

    Adamek has all the skills: a good jab, good right hand, good movement and good defence on the inside with no holding. He's 6'1" and trains down to stay at 175 lbs. I missed his fight with Paul Briggs, which was very close. I've seen some photos and Briggs is also outstanding and gave Adamek a very tough fight.

    Paul Williams I agree with. Tye Fields? Man, your own your own on that
