    ..Who Will Truly Break Out In 2011...

    Some of the names I have in mind are already making noise to varying degrees. Guys like Timothy Bradley or Devon Alexander come to mind. However, there are also guys who are a little further away, but close to breaking out like Dmitry Pirog.

    So, who do you guys think will truly break out into 2011.

    What about Amir Khan. I think who ever reigns supreme in the 140 pound division as the sole champion will be a breakout star.

        Def Alexander.. Hopefully we'll see more to Ortiz, big fan of his and Alvarez impressed me, strong young kid.

        It's a toss up but I hope my boy Hazegawa can come back on top hopefully doing good against some of the featherweight beasts like Lopez... eventually.

            Hopefully they don't start throwing him to the wolves on the regular now like they did Vargas.. Kid is 20, got plenty years ahead of him.

              Guys like Amir Khan, Lucian Bute and Jean Pascal are harder to list. They technically are already big stars in their countries. So, they've broken through in a sense. Whereas a guy like John Murray is close but not quite there. So, I tried to keep it to guys that haven't reached their star power potential in any country just yet.

              However, a case could be made for all three of the guys I mentioned. Other was an option and they could make sense.

                So, who do you guys think will truly break out into 2011.
                No one and everyone. I'll explain, the low talent guys who happen to have something going on for them will avoid any risks at all costs. They know the fanbase won't go away and the guys with actual talents will waste precious time trying to get the diva pack into a ring. That's how it always goes... You can understand when a Pacquiao or Mayweather pulls a diva because those guys have allot to lose, but to see Alexander, Bradley, Pirov, Maidana, Khan... and many others pull such moves, it makes you wonder why are they doing that.

                  Out of that list, I'd say Rios.

                  Pirog is European so I expect idiot Americans to deny his appeal or ignore him altogether.


                  Everyone loves a slugger. After Maidana breaks that Pakistani glass, I think he'll be loved by all.
