    How far will they go?

    Who do you think out of all the prospects we're hyping up will meet our expectations or get exposed as tomato can beating chumps.

    -Sam Peter
    -Miguel Cotto
    -Kermit Cintron
    -Calvin Brock
    -Jermaine Taylor
    -Jeff Lacy
    -Chavez jr.

    Feel free to list some of the other I've forgot to list.

    -Sam Peter - when this kid fights a top ten opponent he is going to get demolished. his wide lumbering punches and his lack of footwork or head movement will get him into trouble

    -Miguel Cotto - he will do fine as long as he avoids mayweather and decides to rematch chop chop to see if he is weak to southpaws

    -Kermit Cintron- poor management hand fed him opponents and when he got into a real fight we see what happened. (he was not guided properly to the title. He cried like a little girl and got beat senseless. Margarito broke him. nuff said. He may not be able to recover from

    -Calvin Brock

    -Jermaine Taylor - I think he is being fed to hopkins to early but he has youth on his side and hopkins is aging. and his last fight he looked to be showing his age.

    -Jeff Lacy -in a division that is as bad or worse maybe than heavyweight. what worries does he have other than going over to Europe and losing to calzaghe even if he wins. other than he has no worries.

    -Chavez jr- looks very good we shall see how he comes along as his level of opposition increases and as his management makes poor or good choices.

      I agree with just about all of em except the taylor one. BHop said he'll be done when he turns 41 so Taylor had to fight him now he may be too young or green but if BHop retires the champ and Taylor rules the division. Hopkins shadow will forever be casted on Taylor since he did not dethrone him before he retired. I respect both sides for putting this fight on. It the perfect battle between youth and experience.

            Can't believe I forgot Ouma. Also add Andre Ware to the list. He's still very green but I think he can be special.

                  Juan Diaz & Ouma are like machines these 2 don't stop throwing punches. Diaz is a little faster, but Ouma hits a little harder. I like watching both guys, especially Diaz.

                    haven't been exposed to the Juan Diaz experience yet but i've seen Ouma a couple times and he is a one exciting mutha.
