The big unit from Watford....Joshua. He needs careful handling both in terms of managing the expectation that will come his way from the media and us fans, as well as being able to learn at his own pace whilst not being fed no-hopers who won't prepare him for the proper fights that will come his way. That's a difficult balancing act but I think Joshua has got the right team in place and seems to be a good listener, as well as being blessed with the physique and talent to get to the top.
I also want to see how the whole Hughie Fury story plays out. He seems to be much more balanced than Tyson and is going through a really interesting, old school apprenticeship. I am not sure he's got the same range of gifts as Joshua; but he is so young and picking up such good experience that he is going to be a threat and when he fills out in his mid 20s he's going to be a real beast of a fighter.

Fury, Callum smith, Joshua are the most interesting. As a character I think ogogo is very media friendly
Re: Who's your favourite british prospect
I have to admit, im one of the few that isnt completely sold on Joshua. I think he has a very good boxing brain and he's got all the physical attributes aswell as power BUT I also think he looks a little flat footed and robotic looking at times when I watch him. For instance for all the criticism Wlad gets from certain sections, I think he moves very well for a big guy. He's pretty fleet footed.
