1. Nicky Cook.
Hammered an undefeated tough guy for a respected title, the manner of his victory puts him in good stead in one of the best divisions right now.

2. Audley Harrison.
It wont suprise many people I put this guy here. This time next year he will have won the European title and will be looking at genuine World titles.

3. David Haye.
This boy has talent, youth and oozes class. His chin may let him down but lets not judge him on that 1fight. He has signalled his intent to fight for the British title and also the IBO title. To do this he has said he will bring some highly ranked Americans in, should be an interesting year.

4. David Barnes.
Undefeated young and already facing live opposition. Expect him to look to higher honours soon.

5. Carl Froch.
People critisice him for his last performance, but I praise him. He was looking down the barell of a very humiliating gun and he came back to win emphatically. He is now lined up for Tony Dodson in early June. This boy has talent but needs to hold that damn hand higher.

6. Carl Johanneson.
A-Force promotions new signing and looking very good. While people watch Gomez and Arthur expect this young lad to be scaling the Super Featherweight division.

7. Alex Arthur.
More established than Johanneson and should do well.

8. Roman Greenberg.
Fights in New York soon, still undefeated and still only 21, will go far thats for sure.

9. Jamie Moore.
Fights for the Commonwealth Light Middle title this weekend. This young southpaw could find himself in the mix in a few years time.

10. Michael Jennings.
Could do well despite his seeming lack of Knockout power.

got to put mitchell there

Nuicky Cook is european champ, yet still a prospect?

Good point Adam, I had him in mine but I realised this was a mistake.

How about this for a definition - any fighter not in the Worlds top 50 (or should that by 30 for the heavyweights).

im sorry morales wasnt availble for his first fight

Wow that is seriously an awsome KO. Who was the opponent.

Kevin Mitchell is a punk though.

Sure he has talent, but he also comes across as a sneering, petulent type. It won't be long before he enters a ring with this attitude and someone takes his head off....

I look at this differently than most it seems as i dont really deem someone a real prospect in the pro ranks untill I have seen them in a decent amount of fights...IE Haye has had 9 fights,Audley Harrison etc..

Someone like Mitchell I regard as a novice of sorts as he has only had a few....people was calling him a prospect after one or two fights and although you cannot doubt he has skills....can you really tell he is such a prospect at that early a stage...

This is just the way I look it at it and not necessarily right....

After 7 or so fights you will have seen him deal with a variety of opponents if not anyone any good....I dont like to judge to early although I will point out faults...IE Mitchell looks so open to me and will get beaten but its too early and he has plenty of time to rectify faults....which is what his early fights are all about...

I will stop rambling now.

He's only a kid though, give him the chance to grow up.

The whole youth thing now is the hip hop thing of being brash, arrogant and disrespectful.

It'll pass.

Yeah it's a joke, another one of those shamefully hyped white fighters eh, SS?
