i saw shaik and mcconnel both live at broncos a few weeks ago, liked the look of both of them, shaik has some good power. nd mcconnel looks quick and moves pretty well. like to see both of them fight some good opponents to goto the next level.
ive only seen brunker once on tele and he looked good, although i dont know how he could put up with that girlfriend, she was louder than the entire crowd on her own, haha.
OM for tomlinson as well

It's one thing to be patriot, but to pick blokes only from your state is a bit narrow.....theres some really good fighters to the east.

There is a difference between opinion and fact clearly on this subject.
Me personally it's all there on paper even if you haven't seen the blokes fight.
True, I just have a bit of a soft spot for Bryant in particular as he used to me my trainer, and Andy Green trained at the same gym. If you got the impression that I think they are the best two prospects is Australia, well that's certainly not what I intended, I just wanted to give them a mention.

I tend not to comment on fighters that I haven't seen, but I will agree that Omotoso seems world class, and it will be very interesting when he steps up.
My bad! I thought they were your picks.

I first seen him fight on a fox card then the next 4 0r 5 shows he was on....limited opposition, but looked really good. Ever since he dominated his stablemate Columban he hasn't appeared on a show and his opposition has been fairly decent.
I thought Augustus was a big step up, his record looks like shit but it's not a true reflection of who Augustus is.
Omotoso has beaten everyone that matters here and i feel maybe a trip abroad is not too far off.
