where did u see these guys fight ?
We train at the same gym.
Plus Townsley impressed all when sparring Damean Kelly for the Irishman's European title shot earlier this year.
McArthur, a lightweight, already has a win over a guy called Gethin, who although not a brilliant fighter, outweighed him on the night by almost a stone. Gethin went on to beat former Commonwealth welterweight title challenger Craig Dickson up at around 11 stone.
I've seen both of them in the amatuers, and Townsleys pro debut last May at Motherwell Civic.
Trust me on it.
Another good propsect is Anthony Small at light middle weight. Just seen him a few times on undercard fights. He's obviously a bit of Naz fan as he has the same kind of style. Quite exciting to watch and who knows how far he can go as hes a big powerful lad with very quick hands. A real entertainer and if you thought Naz was arrogant wait till you hear this boy he makes naz sound quite humble!
Yep completely agree sir ;D, Small is the real deal in my opinion, He has everything in his locker i.e speed, Power, Movement and his switch hitting is gonna give the best of them problems, I think the more fights he has the more he'll add to his arsenal,Quote:

I saw that Paul David last night as well and was very impressed, looks the business indeed. There is another young guy that was on a few weeks ago I have seen a couple of times...he's from south queensferry...and he also looks like a good prospect as he looks neat and tidy with a lot agression. Whats his name...erm..argh...can't think!
John Murray = UK's No1 prospect.

I knew he'd get some love sooner or later. Anthony used to box for the same gym I train at as an Amateur and still comes down all the time, a great guy as well.
Anthony's reflexes wil touble everyone, and thats what everyone sees, but his power is truly immense, remember hes been clean KOin super middleweights his last couple of fights.
The first time I ever saw Anthony fight was in the ABA's about five years ago and saw him knock a guy out within 5 seconds. A quick one two and the guy was down, tried to get up, and fell back down. I loved his style then and I love it now and have been to see every fight I can.
How can you not love a guy who comes out to James Brown in a Scream mask? ;D
Oh yeah check the sig boys, you know it makes sense...
Yeah bro i hear you ;D, Tell Anthony to keep up the good work man he's the truth, I really think he could be the biggest thing in britsh boxing for a long time, When is he fighting next?, And who's his promoter?,Quote:

David also trained down the same amateur gym. Could be great careers ahead for both. Touch wood.Quote:

Been watching Carl Johanneson for a while now, he's a super featherweight. He looks to be quite a good prospect, he's fighting Billy Corcoran on Sky Sports on 12th July for the British title.
Carry on being great?? His record was pants mate? When did his record start becoming great?Quote:

Skel just trust me, Im not gonna go on too much, dont wanna jinx the boy. ;D
Small:-
He brings something new to the table and is a showman.
Lets judge him on his performances in the future b4 shooting the lad down.
anthony small - light middleweight - unorthodox, good puncher, cocky
carl johanneson - super featherweight - exciting, fought a lot in america
nicky cook - featherweight - very solid, technically good
ajose olusegun - light welterweight - very very good, ko'd bradley price and ali numbembe
gary woolcombe - light middleweight - good basic skills, high guard, nothing alarmingly special about him
jackson asiku - featherweight - on his last showing he looked a bit like azumah nelson
matthew macklin - light middleweight - might be fighting john duddy pretty soon
john murray - lightweight - guna be a massive star
