I am always stumped when it comes to this topic...especially with alot of the obvious prospects already named but I like Omar Figueroa so far...that kid has heart...
I forgot about Kamegai. I saw him fight in vegas on the undercard Nishioka vs Marquez. He impressed me that night, but I totally forgot about him. I tried to find other fights of his but wan't able to find any. But based on that one performance I liked what I saw.
This kid is the goods, he has great technique, timing and instinct. Needs to improve his defense though.
still support Yordenis Ugas even though he lost last week :pat:
I think Demetrius Andrade can compete with most of the Top Fighters at 154 RIGHT NOW but he is working his way up slowly which I really don't have a problem with
Sharif Bogere even though I thought he lost to Ray Beltran but...hey, I thought Larry Mosley beat Canelo but nobody ever bring that up lol JUST SAYING!
Gary Russell Jr of course, love his hands speed and the way he fights
Frankie Gomez has a style that can make him a HUGE DRAW IN BOXING one day, gotta stay out of trouble outside of the ring
Jose Benavides has the OVERALL SKILLS to become a LEGIT SUPERSTAR...not some guy with Average Skills being Hyped Up and Protect like some of these other fighters...but A LEGIT SUPERSTAR that you can just let loose and go out and dominate in the ring and make Fans BELIEVE HE IS THE BEST!
Rau'shee Warren...especially if he wins Gold This Summer, even if he doesn't he is going to be a beast as a pro
Mercito Gesta...I have to admit I use to get annoyed hearing this dude call out Rios wondering why is he so obsessed with Rios, but after studying this guy and reviewing his fights...This dude has talent!
Yoshihiro Kamegai
Yaundale Evans

Anybody seen Miver Ga the big headed, co.cky sumb.itch? :boxing::boxing::boxing:
He hangs around in the Netherlands with the fat twins Mispe and Lotas.
ismayl sillakh.
im a big fan of mike jones, kell brook and gary russell jr also but i figure they should be considered contenders at this point.
i like proksa too despite his recent loss, i think he will learn from it and become a better fighter. it just looked like a case of inexperience getting the better of him.
Sillakh is bad ass but I wonder if he is contender status now?
Hanzel Martinez. He's Margarito's brother in law. He reminds me of a throw back fighter. I've only seen him fight a few times, but every fight I've seen of his was fun to watch.
