    Nobody from that list stands out to me. I think Cotto might be able to reach ATG status if he hangs around and beats everyone at WW and then moves up to JMW late in his career to win a title.

          which one is younger, already holds a title, and has multiple defences of it?

              IMO, If Amir Khan sorts himself out (chin, gets good trainer) then he has the skills to clean out that lightweight division which is already going strong with the likes of Campbell, Casamayor, Diaz, Katsidis, Manny P, etc.

              If he beat all of them he would be a great, even if he beats the majority of them he will be remebered by many. However, i can't see it happening at the moment.

                    why did you put either of them? Ive never heard any hype about them, and based on their records they havent beaten anyone of note. the Cruiserweight Alexeev is even 27, thats not exactly young. I guess the Welterweight Alexeev has potential but...the hell, why did you bother mentioning him?

                    anyways, I went for Linares.
                    no answer for this?

                      Alexander Alexeev won a silver medal in the 2003 world amateurs, and Gold in the 2005 world amateur tournament in China. There are many people who think he has a great future.

                      Why aren't you complaining about me putting Gamboa? He's about the same age as Alexeev...

                      It must really torture you, BlackIrish, when you see an East European fighter win, since you hate them so much.
