Canelo Alverez Frankie Gomez and Jose Acieviedo will be the main stars in the US and Europeans will rule from Middle wieght up. Its like the brother is being push out for his lack to engage

Jose Benavidez Jr., David Lemieux, and Demetrius Andrade I can see being stars.

I love the way Frankie Gomez fights dude is pitbull I have a feeling fans hardcore Boxing fans are really going to love him bc they know they are going to get their moneys worth when he fights.

There's great talent out there, but not sure who will be a Superstar. With the stock of talent today, I think we'll get a better idea in the new couple years.

Charlie Z is already an elite high profiled boxer.

I'm optimistic, but also concerned. I see a lot of young and skilled talent coming up but many have fallen short of their full potential be it due to bad decisions(Kirkland) or, and i hate to say it, lack of heart(Ortiz, Alexander).

I hope it's just inexperience and they do reach the top of the sport.

Very true I also get scared when I see great talent signing with Golden Boy. Frankie Gomez and Saul Alvarez come to mind because Golden Boy is relatively inexperienced and there match making is iffy whereas I feel fighters like Jose Benavidez Jr. and Omar Henry if he stays with Top Rank and ever fights again will be great fighters.

networks will hype whoever they think is good looking and has a background story that they think is interesting to the fans. hyped fighter will be put on ppv undercards and such against no-hopers. then they'll get maidana'd.

i pretty much see it being the same as it is now
