well, I will refrain from listing the obvious (gamboa, khan....) cuz I know they have probably been listed to death. So I will name a relativley unkown prospect in Solomon Haumono 14-0(14 ko's). although he is in his 30's he has devastating power and considering the way the hw division looks right now, I wouldn't put it past him to give any of the top hw's a really hard fight in the near future.

"American Boy" Jason Litzau

19-0-0 (17kos)
Featherweight
http://www.ringsidereport.com/Litzauphoto.jpg
5'10, Orthodox, 23 years old. Hes faced some serious competition and has walked through them all. Was listed in ESPNs Top 17 Friday Night Fights history in his bout with John Nolasco.
I dont know if Barrios is now a contender or what but he deserves mentioning.
Jorge Rodrigo Barrios

Recently Koed Janos Nagy of Hungary (previously undefeated) with a perfect shot to the kidney in the first half of round one. It was a hell of a 40seconds though.
Jason Litzau is the real deal. He will reign the super featherweight div in the next few years. The boy gots skills and very heavy handed.
Here is an excerpt from my Harold Lederman interview. Here are some people hes high on right now:
Asian Sensation: Out of the young prospects coming up, who are you most impressed with?
Harold Lederman: Amir Khan, numero uno! Amir Khan is definitely going to be the next big star in boxing. In my mind, there’s no doubt about it. Probably at 140, the minute Amir Khan steps up you’re going to see a fighter that has the talent to become the second coming of Sugar Ray Robinson, Sugar Ray Leonard, any of the greats. He’s tremendous.
Among the heavyweights, I like Ruslan Chagaev the White Mike Tyson, the one that nobodies ever seen. I saw him on TV when he fought in Michigan against Rob Calloway, he knocks guys out like crazy. I think that Peter Kohl who promotes Ruslan Chagaev is doing a nice job with him. I think Chagaev is going to be the heavyweight that really may be something special in the division. Ruslan Chagaev, remember the name.
I like the kid that Golden Boy promotes, Abner Mares. The kid’s about 18 years old, punches like a mule, has every move in the book. I love that kid on the way up. Abner Mares to me is nothing short of sensational. I think he’s a great prospect. Arthur Abraham, hardly anybodies ever seen him. He’s had less than 20 fights, he holds a version of the middleweight title. He can be a force in boxing. Those are a couple of names of guys I like.
