I really like the look of Dalton Smith. He’s not just beating guys, he’s really working them over which is the sign for me of a really good young fighter for me.
I also really like Conor Benn now. Would you still call him a prospect?

To be fair, boxrec rates this guy 128 out of 248 middles in the USA. I think he's probably beyond the prospect stage, though at 71 he's still got 10 years in the game.

Can you see fighting for a world title and winning? Ideally I'd like to see him move up to heavyweight and fight Fres Oquendo for a WBA world title of some description.....

Yeah - I think he’s a really good prospect. He seemed to coast a little in his last fight though and I’d have liked it if he’d stepped it up and got the guy out of there.

defo still a prospect, only like 20 and still very early days. defo impressive, also agree with mav's comment -- does tend to coast a bit and not push as much as you think he could. you see this with a lot of good fighters when they arent being challenged enough, they should get him in with some plucky english/brit title contender who is gonna come and try to beat him

He's not that fast on his feet and his handspeed i would say is average. But his timing is very decent, and he clearly hits very hard! Definitely one to watch I would say.
