    Who should retire this year, and who will crash the elite?

    Out with the old. In with the new. Name who should retire, and who you expect to crash the elite and come onto the big stage.

    I'm looking for B-Hop, Holyfield and De La Hoya to retire. Although he's already an elite fighter, I expect Cotto to bounce back huge. I also expect Gamboa to step up, although I doubt he'll be among the elite, and Juan Manuel Lopez to establish himself some more and beat the top dogs around that weight. That's just a few.

      I agree with Jermain Taylor. I forgot to add him. I'm a little torn on Miranda. As much as I love him, I'm just not sure.

          I think he will move up to super middleweight knock some guys out then fight taylor for a title, i think taylor will win but Miranda has suck KO power that im sure he will find his way back up top

              How about Dawson? I think he will do ok but i haven't seen enough stamina to be sure he will be an huge star. Lets see if Bernard fights him so he has yet another chance to star. Who else is there for Chad? That guy Frost or whatever he's called, he should also lineup to fight Dawson. If Europe wants to have any claim to be doing well in boxing apart from the HW division i think they should send fighters to fight prime fighters like Dawson

                If he can get the right fights this could be Juanma Lopez's big year.

                    Everything about Miranda, including his KO power - actually, ESPECIALLY his KO power - is overrated.
