Michael Hunter
Hunter built a commendable career at the amateur level, but his professional achievements have been modest thus far. After a disappointing 2012 Olympics, Michael transitioned to the professional ring and performed admirably in the cruiserweight division, winning several regional titles.
Interestingly, Hunter's first and only career defeat came at the hands of the reigning undisputed heavyweight champion, Oleksandr Usyk. In his most recent bout, Hunter knocked out Mexican Ignacio Esparza in the fifth round.
Cassius Chaney
Cassius also had a respectable amateur career before turning professional in 2015. Throughout his career, the American has participated in Tyson Fury's training camps and remained undefeated until 2021.
Chaney's sole defeat came against George Arias. In his last fight in the autumn of last year, Cassius knocked out Trevor Bryan in the seventh round.
