    Up and Coming Fighters

    1. "Bad" Chad Dawson- 18-0, 11 Kos

    2. Andre Ward-Supermiddle weight 3-0,1 ko

    3. Jason Estrad-Heavyweight 2-0, 1 Ko

    I've seen all these fighters fight recently and I'm impressed by the level of talent they seen to posess although their wins aren't against the greatest crop of talent, they still impressed me. Chad Dawson has incredible boxing skills,body strength, and punching power and saw him put on a boxing clinic in his last fight. As for Ward and Estrada, both participated in last summer's olympics, these two guys look like they could be serious contenders in the near future. What are your thoughts on these up and coming fighters? What are some other up and comers?

            Vicente went to the olimpic games representing Mexico, that's getting far in the amateurs IMO. Great kid, I watch him fight a couple of weekends ago on the Barrera undercard, he won in 1/2 a round.
            General question, how can I upload a pic to post here on this thread? I wanted to share a pic of me and Escobedo.

              I really believe that Andre Ward will be a huge sucess some day. He has his mind right and he has all the tools to be a great fighter.

                I am sure this is not going to be a popular statement but mark my words- when Julio Cesar Chavez Jr finally decides to get in a real fight this kid is going to sleep! This one is over hyped...

                On the subject of other up and comers though, anybody happen to catch Andre Dirrell this weekend on FNF's? And if so what did you think? I am going to hold off on my opinions for now, but I am curious for others...

                    If Estrada is the future of the heavyweight division, let's just say that people are going to look back at Lamon Brewster and John Ruiz with fond memories.
