Fernando 'Warrior of the Cross' Guerrero 12-0 (11KOs) - I just found out about this guy, and he looks like a monster. take a look.
nasty uppercut. apparently, Guerrero was the 2007 amateur Middleweight champ, and hes only 22 years old too.Comment

Oh yea, I forgot about Mike 'Machine Gun' Jones.
pretty quick guy, eh? plus, his name is MIKE JONES. hes in his early twenties.
also, that 18 year old Saul Alvarez has knocked his last two opponents out in the first round. and they had decent records too, I think between them there were only 3 losses. just might be improving.Comment

Well, a little more than a year later 2 of those three are down. I dont think Fields can become a champion after his loss, Ortiz on the other hand can redeem himself. Greene has yet to step up in competition.I will make this thread for all the prospects who are not big now, but may end up being major players in boxing one they step up in competition. I think we should update this too for all the new guys that start popping up, so that they can become popular a little bit quicker, so whenever they get a big win or become champions we actually know who they are! Be sure to add some of your own!
Heres a few guys Im keeping an eye out for at the moment...
Eric 'Danger' Fields 11-0-He has only been fighting a short while, but shows a huge amount of natural talent. He became the 2006 National Golden Gloves Champion after only boxing only 18 months! His biggest victory is over former champ Kelvin Davis, who was not in top shape but Fields destroyed him in the 1st round and looked extremely impressive. He reportedly is actually a huge body puncher, something we didnt even get to see in the Davis fight. If he continues to improve at the rate hes going, look for him to be fighting for the Cruiser, or even Heavyweight championship later on.
Fighting 11-0 Ola Afolabi next, who stopped an old Orlin Norris in his last fight

'Vicious' Victor Ortiz 20-1-Only 21 years old, this hard hitting Light Welterweight southpaw already has 21 wins and a long amateur career. In his last fight he knocked out former champ Carlos Maussa, who lasted 9 rounds with Ricky Hatton only two fights before he fought Ortiz. Ortiz knocked him out badly in the first round. Ortiz hasn't been nearly as active this year compared to previous years, but he has a bright future with his young age.

'Mean' Joe Greene 18-0-A rising star in the Middleweight division, he is only 22 years old and seems to have a ton of power in his southpaw stance. He was the 2004 National Golden Gloves Middleweight Champ when he was only about 18. He was recently on the untelevised undercard of Klitschko-Ibragimov, where he used Francisco Mora as a punching bag until the fight was mercifully stopped. Scheduled to fight an unnamed opponent in a month, keep yours eyes out for this guy.
