Prospects That Get Too Much Publicity And Hype

[Hunter]

Most of the boxing great's sons - More recently JCC jr and Hearns....Hearns just lost again and JCCjr will as soon as he steps up...Maybe those guys arent considered prospects?

I agree on Gamboa, alot of hype and shaky whiskers/defense...

Without a doubt Tyson Fury is getting too much attention. The guy is till very very young with only 4 fights. There is no need to hype him up.

I love following prospects along, it sucks when they don't make it, but I think picking out hte special fighters early in their career really shows your boxing knowledge and foresight.

I am yet to be sold on Alexander Povetkin and Odlainer Solis.....they look horrid at times to be as hyped as they have been.

Wladimir Klitschko has done Povetkin a HUGE favor by fighting David Haye first. If Povetkin fought Dimitrenko (a guy who gets too little credit) I think he'd get KO'd. Povetkin doesn't do anything great, he does everything average.

Whatever ever happened to that Tyrone Brunson or Bronson guy. I remember him getting a lot of hype and publicity when he racked up a bunch of first round kayos.

Did he ever break the first round kayo record?

He drew with a guy who lost 5 of his last 6 fights lol. I think that spells the end for his run as a prospect
