    Moshea Aleem, he put on a pretty good Ali impression the days he fought, he even did the Ali shuffle a few times. He the crowd chanting Ali Ali in his fights.
    Thats Gary Antonio Russell correct?

    The youngest one of the bunch.

      Gamboa - Lopez

      Now that's gonna be a superfight that should have great expectations.

        Yea, Daquan's younger brother. He does a pretty good Philly Shell Mayweather style impression. Very talented kid.

          the thing is, its hard to judge talent in the ams. many of those guys will go pro and wind up being ****. look at guys like rock allen the petersons(although they arent ****, they arent as great as it seemed they would be). etc. u have to wait til these guys turn pro before u can judge how much potential they have. the ams just aint wat they used to be and to make matters worse, olympic boxing is just plain horrible.

            neither one of those guys seem like they will be superstars. at the most, it seems lopez will turn into a miguel cotto caliber fighter.

              You would of said the same thing about both Pacquaio and Mayweather 10 years ago. Fighters go through their lumps and new fighters are discovered every year. Not every prospect or fighter that HBO wants to make into a superstar is going to pan out.

                Agreed. The young fighters develop into stars. Hell young pacquiao wasn't even a "young pacquiao". Growing and experiencing will only come with time. There are a lot of good fighters coming up. With time they can be great. Problem is all these decade old fighters still get the shine.
