American Heavyweights

[Beanz]

To be totally honest all roads point to the lot of them being totally shit , just like the last ten years of American heavyweights

Yeah...no way they'll be able to compete with the likes of Tyson Fury

I don't think Tyson is the future of UK Heavyweight Boxing, David Price could well be that man.David Price vs Tom Dallas R1&2 KO - YouTube

It is early in his career and he may not make the grade but if you can do this to your mate, then Fury will have a real fight on his hands should he and Price ever meet.

Bermane Stiverne already beat Price in the amateurs...Price's chin is not that sturdy either.


Either way, it's better to have a ton of promising young talent than just a little bit...the way I see it what America has produced recently beats the pants off of what it has produced since Holyfield held a title.

I was hoping to get a chance to see Seth Mitchell fight live in San Jose, but alas the damn Maidana vs. Guerrero card got cancelled...

Anyway I've watched him fight a few tims on TV, and he's always in shape and very aggressive. But, he's not particularly fast, or good defensively, and he doesn't look to have real one punch power. He may, but he's fought nothing but Tomato cans.

So far he looks to be on par with or approaching the skill level of Clifford Etienne as someone already mentioned or Derrick Jefferson.

Maybe he will develop into a real contender, but he has to step it up, Timur Ibragimov is a very small step in the right direction.

Amir mansour is the only Hw with potential but he needs to move quick cuz age isnt on his side

Other cats like mitchell and stiverne are dime a dozen and they dont have it.

Seth Mitchell....first heavyweight to stop Timur Ibragimov. It's not a grand accomplishment, but he did very well to stop Timur who has fought some decent opponents in the past. Seth says he's 3-4 fights away from the Klitschko brothers.

I would hope that a fight vs Maruisz Wach happens soon
