I really like the look of Dalton Smith. He’s not just beating guys, he’s really working them over which is the sign for me of a really good young fighter for me.

I also really like Conor Benn now. Would you still call him a prospect?

He’s a seriously skilled guy. Should grow into his man strength.

Yep - that’s my take too at the moment. Still young though so may develop some power. Silky skills though.

To be fair, boxrec rates this guy 128 out of 248 middles in the USA. I think he's probably beyond the prospect stage, though at 71 he's still got 10 years in the game.

Can you see fighting for a world title and winning? Ideally I'd like to see him move up to heavyweight and fight Fres Oquendo for a WBA world title of some description.....

Yeah - I think he’s a really good prospect. He seemed to coast a little in his last fight though and I’d have liked it if he’d stepped it up and got the guy out of there.

defo still a prospect, only like 20 and still very early days. defo impressive, also agree with mav's comment -- does tend to coast a bit and not push as much as you think he could. you see this with a lot of good fighters when they arent being challenged enough, they should get him in with some plucky english/brit title contender who is gonna come and try to beat him

He's not that fast on his feet and his handspeed i would say is average. But his timing is very decent, and he clearly hits very hard! Definitely one to watch I would say.
