Looking through the upcoming list of upcoming events, there are an awful lot of new boxers making their debuts soon. Some I have heard of and others I know nothing about. As I am always keen to keep an eye on the guys on their way up and watch their rises, I am opening this to the fellow boxrec fans to give me a bit of info on who is good and worth keeping an close eye on.
If I have missed any, please add and let us know any info you know.

Farrag and Satchell, 2 good Liverpool lads operating in the lower weights.
Both exciting and good amateurs

I often make reference to it if I'm doing a small hall report but I think there's nothing like a lad's debut - especially if he's never fought at amateur level.
All of a sudden, it's real for them, the ring walk, the music...and often friends and family biting there nails and shouting like it's a world title fight.
Brilliant

I've sparred with both Chris Betteridge and Gareth Piper in recent months and they are both nice kids who should do well for themselves. Heard Chris has done some work with Frankie Gavin and Gareth has done some with Jason Cook.... Can't get much better prerperation then that.

Whoa, that's some matchup for a debut, you guys must have a lot of faith in Darren. Turley's a very decent operator. It'd be a fine start to a career to take a win up against opposition like that on a debut.

he not at same gym as me and with a small promotion company so he not gonna get it easy,he should be boxing at bantam but he as took this at super-bantam.i think he will shock a lot of people in his 1st fight,he is fast and hits hard so wouldnt rule a stoppage out,but like said 1st fight 6 rounds is risky,i would of liked to see him against delroy spencer who he was 1st gonna box.
