Recently, Colombia has been getting flooded with great fighters.
There has been tons of good fighters coming out recently, more and more.....

-Carlos Maussa
-Joel Julio
-Ricardo Torres
-Miranda(just KOd Eastman)
-etc.

None of them have proved to be great yet, but a fairly large numbers of Colombians have been emerging the boxing scene.

Both Torres and Miranda have real heavy hands. Some really good up and coming fighters.

Ricardo Torres, Joel Julio, and Edison Miranda are all good up and comers with power.

i think joel julio deserves to be out of the up and comer category and into the future hall of famer category. his skills are undeniable, I know greatness when I see it. it's a rare thing, but when it's beholded by me I know it's there. julio's name deserves to stand alone, not to be next to Torres. Torres is a good fighter don't get me wrong, but it's just that he sucks vs a technically sound fighter. When he steps up, he will get punked. Torres likes to pop boxing cherries. If you're 0-2, or 0-1, and fight Torres.. ....He'll send your 0-2 ass back to the drive thru quicker than you can say 'I'm up, ref! I'm up!' As for Miranda, I think he's above Torres as well so I'm not goin to classify him on Torres' level, but I will say Miranda is definately BENEATH joel julio and was STUNNED by old howard eastman, something that's never happened to the far more skilled, and more powerful, joel julio. (Julio also has never fought a guy as skilled as Eastman yet, so there u go if you're a Miranda hugger)

joel julio will change the way we think when we hear the term 'Great Fighter'

Julio
Miranda
Torres
Urango

All 4 of these guys can become great. I think Miranda beat Eastman last night & that is the biggest win from these 4 fighters yet. Torres almost pulled it against Cotto, but he lost.

I believe that Julio will be the best from these 4 guys. I just want to see Julio chin to be tested by a power puncher, if Julio has a great chin, then he will be very dangerous.
