British prospects

Just going through the boxrec rankings of all the different weight classes and noticed there is an alarming lack of British talent in them (I’m not saying the Brits aren’t talented that are there it’s just the lack of numbers)
Following the last couple of losses by British fighters in big fights such as Whyte, Dubois, Brook, Smith and now Warrington, anybody got a list of upcoming exciting prospects to keep an eye on as they come up through the ranks?

Ones to look out for:

Dalton Smith (Super lightweight)

Paddy Donovan (Welterweight)

Fabio Wardley (Heavyweight)

Willy Hutchinson (Super middleweight)

Hamzah Sheeraz (Super welterweight)

Louis Lynn (Feathweight)

Hopey Price (Featherweight)

Dennis McCann (Batamweight)

You will see a lot of these starting to come through over the next few years!

I disagree, there's loads of talent coming up. And after the Olympics most of the GB squad will be turning over

If he improves his defence I think Sam Noakes is going to do well for himself.

I think Sunny Edwards will jump ship in the next few months. FW didn’t manage to get him or Charlie a noteworthy fight in 2020 and they don’t have anything lined up in the first 3 months of this year either. Plus Eddie has a lot of talent and titles in and around Sunny’s weight devision.

I think Dalton Smith impressed enough last night to be put on a lot of prospect watchlists.

Same. His style’s really easy on the eye too which always makes it better.

Lovely style of boxing, but I can see the first come forward puncher to walk right through him.

I’m not sure why but he became very poorly last year and spent a lot of time in hospital.
