Which up and comer are you the most excited about?

[Scott9945]

Yuriorkis Gamboa and Andre Berto for me.

I was just about to post those two names. I'd add Victor Ortiz if he ever becomes active again.

i wouldn't say alfonso gomez is an up and comer by the way, hes probably as good as hes ever going to be .. worse when cotto dismantles him.

also i don't get why they wont put JCC jr in with good competition, from what i have seen hes a really good strong quick hard hitting fighter with a decent chin and heart .. why pad his record so much, he could be making big money in big fights by now ..

[JakeNDaBox]

yuriorkis gamboa is the next big thing in boxing, i would say i cant wait for him to fight some decent competition, but he already has in very few fights.

also cant wait for amir khan to become champion.

my two picks as well, especially Gamboa.

A great big L-O-L at the thread starter for listing Alfonso Gomez in the poll, and also to the one person who voted for him

[bishop2006]

James Kirkland. He's very exciting to watch and when he has been faced with adversity, he made the necessary adjustments to come out on top. He still has a way to go but he could turn into a serious threat to the Middleweight division. He reminds me of Mike Tyson.

Yeh,Kirkland is a beast,he has something in his eyes that shows what kinda attitude he has in the ring,his trainer is Anne Wolfe so it explains where he gets it from,he can punch

[Primal Instinx]

Gamboa, Berto, and JuanMa Lopez for me...all good boxers with power! We'll find out soon how good Lopez is now that he is fighting a beast in Ponce de Leon.

[Rocky Katsidis]

Craig Mcewan for me, hes the next big thing

[THE REED]

Wheres andre BERTO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ИATAS]

Yuriorkis Gamboa.

I'm also a fan of James Kirkland, although I don't think he'll be an elite fighter, just highly entertaining and will be able to compete with the best.
