      Concepcion. Overrated like a mother ****er. Mares is my second pick because hes being mishandled. Concepcion by a country mile though.

        Gamboa is closer to his peak now so chances are he'll be done before the other prospects named. He's the oldest of the lot and has already reached contender status. I'd say it's Mares, he's being promoted the least-aggressively. He's very skilled but just doesn't have much power, or so it seems.

          Of all those guys, Concepcion probably has the least skill and rushing him into fights with guys like Luevano isn't going to do him any favors.

            Overrated? Maybe. He's the only non-Olympian in this list, hardly an amateur background. Olympian's tend to look good against patsies because of their fundamentals. They get to hide their flaws until they get to the elite levels.

            He's also the youngest of the lot at 20 and the most active. He also had the most professional fights under his belt, yet he's considered the greenest of the lot.

              Agreed. As for Luevano he doesnt impress me much either. Im amazed that he gets on so many ppvs. Luevano will lose his belt soon.

                126 just doesn't seem to be his weight. He's taken a lot of punishment in his last two fights but he's a very slick fighter with decent power when he sits down on his shots. Luevano is promoted by Top Rank and that gets him on cards. Hell even Tye Fields got on a PPV card. Butterbean was televised on the DLH-River card back in 97.

                  Gamboa and Khan will have the most success out of those 4. both will take their respective divisions over in about 3-4 years or so.

                    Those two have recently been floored too. Khan has been floored how many times in his short career, 3-4? He hasn't even been with the power punchers of the division yet.

                      Why Tunney because he is black, that is only reason. Gamboa is way better than Khan
