Picking prospects to watch for 2021 is a little more difficult than previous years with the pandemic continuing to throw all sorts of obstacles in the way of professional boxers. It pays to be aligned to a promoter with a lucrative broadcast deal, a fact that has been magnified under the lens of Coronavirus. With no-one quite knowing when ‘small hall’ boxing will return I’ve swerved from picking fighters from the star gilded, stables of VIP and Goodwin – to give just two examples of exceptional ‘small’ promoters with books of young prospects.
The final bit of admin – if you were picked in any of the 2018 / 19 / 20 installments you can’t get picked again!
