Which YOUNG prospect will make the biggest splash on the boxing scene this year??????

All those are not prospect they contenders..... Amir Kahn isn't.

jorge arce is a two time world champ and vic darchinian is a current champ who just came off like 8 straight ko`s or sumthin likle that. Paul williams has a title shot cumin up in 2007. So these arent prospects but paul williams will make the biggest splash

Daniel Ponce De Leon,Jorge Arce ,Vic Darchinyan and Joan Guzman have all gone passed the prospect labe long ago. specially Arce and Guzman sinc they are both 2 weight champs already. BTW Allan green is ganna make some serious splash at 160 now that his moves down.

You mentioned the two am fights between Vanes and Berto before. It must have been quite a matchup. Hopefully both will win titles and meet still undefeated in a battle of rising stars. The 27th is on Arce's card right? Ya, Jorge Arce and Kelly Pavlik will be the main events on HBO BAD. Vanes will fight right before those 2 fights, hopefully they show highlights. http://www.fightnews.com/toprank360.gif

I hope so bro, and its quite a possibility. They have met each other in the amateurs. Berto won the first fight, Vanes won the second. Would be a good one to see huh... Vanes is gonna fight his first 8-Rounder on Jan 27 @ Honda Center. He is fighting Taronze Washington who was stopped in the 1st by Berto recently.

My first reaction is to say Allen Green, or Andre Berto will make a splash this year...but I'm going to say Ponce de Leon. Why? Because I feel his ethnicity will make him marketable and his weight class is going to give him room to grow. He has a nice hard punch and I feel like when you combine skills with marketability you get gold. Just my thoughts. Paul Williams goes without saying for me.

What's on deck for Vanes this year? Who will be his first big target? Do you yhink he will eventually meet Berto in the pros? I hope so bro, and its quite a possibility.

ya prospect is definintely the wrong word here... especially for VIC DARCHINYAN who is a WORLD CHAMPION (IBF, IBO) He is far past being a prospect buddy :) Now for a real prospect to watch in 2007... http://www.vanesboxing.com/images/fight12_w350_holidays.jpg What's on deck for Vanes this year?

Williams he is huge for a welter and if he can make a few technical improvements he will be very tough for anybody. Not to mention he supposedly spars with much bigger fighters and has a chin to go with his crazy workrate. Williams will own Margarito.:banana:

taylor wont face a real middleweight if he doesnt have to, taylor will contunue fighting former junior middlewieghts.... somehow miranda needs to become taylor's mandatory, MAYBE, he'll fight if he'll be stripped of his belts if refuses. that's what i'm hoping, so miranda can knock his bitch ass out

yeah, definitley green i think miranda wins a belt in 07, he'll knock the fuck out of jermain taylor if taylor is ever forced to fight him taylor wont face a real middleweight if he doesnt have to, taylor will contunue fighting former junior middlewieghts....

i like allan greens chances....pretty strong and has shown that he can comeback from the canvas... i know he isnt a prospect but iam impressed by edison miranda.... he could have a huge 07.. yeah, definitley green i think miranda wins a belt in 07, he'll knock the fuck out of jermain taylor if taylor is ever forced to fight him

Paulie was saying your an unbelievable puncher and no hard feelings and Cotto was saying dont worry about it theres respect dont worry about it. Cool cheers for the info

Really, thats good to know theres real respect and that. Quick question : What did Cotto say to Paulie just before he got his left glove taken off and let out that noise of pain, if u know? I couldnt make it out but Cotto seemed quite animated Paulie was saying your an unbelievable puncher and no hard feelings and Cotto was saying dont worry about it theres respect dont worry about it.

What is the definition of a young prospect? Someone who is under 24 and not a champ or someone who is in his 20's but hasnt lost a match? Call me crazy but I still view Miguel Cotto as a young prospect who still hasnt reached his peak but Iam pretty sure some would say that hes not a prospect. A prospect that I think has a shot at making some sort of a splash in 07 would be Julio Cesar Chavez Jr who at 20 has great size and has the name that will get him some decent fights in the future. Another guy I think of is Samuel Peter who might have a dominating 07.

LOL We'll see. As far as im concerned Paulie can outbox anyone. Im a huge Cotto fan and Paulie is a huge Cotto fan theres nothing but respect there. But they will fight again and i think the outcome will be a little different. Really, thats good to know theres real respect and that.

I dont wana rubbish ur boy Paulie but at the same time i dont wanna sound two faced, ive said sum derogeritory stuff about Malinagi. But i'll say this he proved he has that champions heart, we knew he could box but not that he had heart! But i think Cotto would eat him up now coz he is so much more suited to 147. LOL We'll see.

Ill be sure to tell him the people on Boxingscene are wishing him well. Bro Cotto is a beast lol. I think Paulie can beat him cause i have so much confidence in him but i know Cotto is one of the best out there in any weight class. He sure is a good plasctic suregeon rearranging peoples faces lol. I dont wana rubbish ur boy Paulie but at the same time i dont wanna sound two faced, ive said sum derogeritory stuff about Malinagi.
