Got to say I like the way this prospect is handling himself. Seems to have a good punch on him too.
Of the newcomers I'd say Smith and Selby seems to be causing the most fan-friendly excitement.
And how can you knock a man called "Mundo" wtf ?

He looked quite good at the weekend, first time i'd seen him up close and he's bigger than i imagined looked like a large LHW

Still have not seen this smith & shocked to read he looks like a l. Heavy!!
I see him box in the juniors at crystal palace at l.welter which seems not that long ago??
Suprised he is developing power so early tbh.
Unbelievable family of boxers they are all top pro's IMO

Was thinking to myself the other day how proud must their father be?
4 sons who between them have won 4 aba titles,2 commonwealth silver medals,1 commonwealth gold,2 british titles,2 commonwealth titles and the best of the lot hasn't even hit his peak yet!!

I think i saw paul saying his dad had no more than a handful of amateur bouts.
He certainly didn't achieve anything close to what his sons have.

Brilliant fighter who has bags of potential and I think could be something very special at SMW and LHV.

I like the look of him. Definietly looks like he can eclipse his brothers achievements and go past domestic level.

Bit premature saying he is better then his brothers. But I suppose it's good he's getting fans excited.

I agree with hurlock.
Its great for the city that there are 4 talented fighters. In the same family!
I think there is still a lot more to come from all of them. Paul still has many years left has a fighter. Hopefully he will regain the british title and then well...you never know.

It's just a shame paul,liam and stephen are contracted to the other fella and are being left to rot on the
sidelines.
If eddie had all 4 bro's signed he would sell the echo out every time providing they were matched
competetively.
Wasn't stephen number 1 contender for the wbo title at super feather at one point?

Feel sorry for swifty . I think the Simpson fight was too early for him he was trouncing durable journeymen & needed more rds before such a tough fighter his promoter didnt invest in opposition & bring over some sturdy international fighters .

At that time though Selby didnt have the rep he does now.
