Who is the next Floyd and Pacquiao?

[Khalid X]

Yeah hes 28. Its time to hit the gas while he still has those insane reflexes. I keep hearing hes suppose to fight Caballero for his belt. Who do you have in that fight if it goes down this year?

It's a toss up IMO. If you put a gun to my head, and told me to make up my mind, the I would say rigondeaux.

Valero is a good pick because hes exciting, powerful with good speed.

valero is garbage.

WOW you actually compared Gamboa to Pac SMH. Gamboa is more like Roy jones. I really don't know, but I think boxing is in alright hands with our future stars.

[nachorjj]

Ward has a style similar to Mayweather, and Pacquiao is a speead boxer like Gamboa and probably Gary Russell jr

[disolly]

Bradley ehhh I could see that. But Rigondeaux's skill set is nuts. Hes like a Left handed Floyd.

Yeah I agree with you. Gamboa is sick too, especially if he can tighten up his defense a bit. Them cubans are sick boxers.

I think the Valero/Pacquiao comparison is fairly obvious.

As for Floyd, there are a couple people who may be able to take that role but we'll have to see who rises to the top and who faulters as they step up in class. The fighters I'm thinking of are Andre Ward, Guillermo Rigondeaux (who could be just as good as Floyd if not better if he fully adapts to the pro game judging by his amateur career), Andre Dirrell or even as someone said earlier, Timothy Bradley, although I personally have my reservations about that pick.

Yep, Rigo has the potential to be better than Floyd, and this is coming from somebody who rates Floyd very highly

BTW, Valero isn't anything special, i'm really not buying into the Valero hype

Lets not forget Pacquiao has 3 loses, 2 of which by KaYO and 2 draws, one of which against an opponent with 9 loses in Agapito Sanchez.

Pretty ****ing cool how he bounces back and becomes fighter of the decade then, right?

The true champ is the one who comes back stronger.

I wasn't for a while either but he's starting to win me over. He's no where near as one dimensional as I first thought. Similar to Pacquiao, he actually has a lot of highly effective technical subtleties and nuances that he uses while on the front foot - which is one of the most difficult things to perfect in boxing.

His defense is a little bit worrying but he has great instincts and reflexes and also is very quick on his feet so there's definitely room to grow there.

I honestly believe he would beat Timothy Bradley if they were to fight now - providing he looks deadly as ever against Peterson.

As for Rigondeaux, I've been watching as much of his amateur fights as possible lately and he's fucking amazing - a complete boxer. We just have to see how he deals with adversity and hope he has enough time in his career to achieve everything he should do.

there will be no next pacquiao or floyd (maybe another floyd if there's a superstar fighter who successfully reaches #2 p4p and ducks top fighters too)
