Callum Smith. Anthony Joshua.

I cannot put my finger on why, but I just dont think these two will make it all the way.
They are arguably the 2 most impressive prospects based on their early form and the hype and praise certainly seems deserved.
But I just get the feeling both men will come undone when they reach that top level.
I've spoken of Joshua reminding me of Bruno and how I feel, much like Frank he'll perhaps lack that little something to do it at the very highest level.
As for callum, I'm not sure what it is. He looks fantastic just now, but I think it may be that both men are wiping out opponents with powerful punching, I reckon when they cant just blast opponents out they may look a little one dimensional.
I really really hope I'm wrong, but i reckon 4-6 years from now, when we are talking about Brittish world title holders at the time, we'll be talking about 1 or 2 we perhaps didn't see coming and talking about how we can't understand why those two never quite did it

I really like the look of Mitchell Smith - great variety, dips and rolls well with shots, commits to his bodypunching early and looks like he has a real nasty streak.
Very fan friendly fighter, haven't a clue how far he'll go but it's guaranteed he'll be in some belting fights in the future.

Funny, a mate of mine works below the gym in Marbella where Macklin trains & Saunders does now too. I asked him if he'd seen Saunders there. His response was "He's an evil looking pudendum"

OK, I got edited. He said AUNT but change the A for a C

What's the point in saying that? He's a rough kid, what do you want him to look like?

2 lads that don't get much hype Ahmet Patterson and Gary corcoran there defently worth keeping an eye on as there career develops. Also Mitch smith and Callum smith.

That's a big recommendation for Chad coming from you Frankie. I've heard a lot about the sparring you and Chad had and I know that he's learned a lot from it.

Best of luck against Bundu, I think you'll out-box him, no problem.

Eubank Jr.

To be fair, only Andre Ward beats him now.....
