    Future of boxing

    Who do you think are some future superstars?

    I know its guys like Bradley (if he stops ducking), Khan, Alexander, Maidana, Berto, Ortiz, Saul Alvarez, Chavez JR, etc. What do you guys think? Think the future looks good? Will Alvarez and Chavez become superstars these are the two guys that i mentioned that im the least impressed with, but their promoters are going to hype them up big time.

          Gamboa and Nonito...are already the next Superstars but unfortunately for them they are in Lower Divisions and lets be honest...CASUAL FANS DON'T CARE ABOUT THOSE SMALLER DIVISION! UNFORTUNATELY!

          So it will be extremely hard for them to become MAJOR PPV Draws

          Alvarez as well as Chavez will be DECENT Draws because of the great Support in Mexico as well as California...BUT unless both Promoters continue to protect them and give them winnable match ups, I have MAJOR DOUBTS about both fighters when it comes to being able to keep their success going in the ring

          I like Jose Benavidez and Frankie Gomez potential more then I do Chavez and Alvarez...it is still very early for them and they both have a long way to go but Benavidez has the RAW SKILLS to be a very COMPLETE FIGHTER and Gomez is that PITBULL Pressure Fighter that will excite a lot of people

          Want to see how Adrien Broner does this weekend, a win over Litzau would be huge specially for a 21 year old fighter who has a TON of talent...not question he is a A$$HOLE and he got a GIFT DECISION over De Leon and he is VERY ANNOYING with all his dancing and disrespect crap he does...BUT THE DUDE HAS A LOT OF TALENT TO WORK WITH and he will only get better, plus he looks like someone that cam probably move up in weight over the next few years to as high as maybe 140-147, he need to impress after that HORRIBLE PERFORMANCE against Ponce De Leon

            If he beats Froch and wins the Super Six, Andre Ward is going to be huge.

            Khan, I always feel he's one punch away from getting KO'd that will ruin his future.

            Canelo obviously but if he's managed correctly, ditto Bradley.

              Broner has the potential to be the next boxing "villain." I can see a lot of people wanting to pay to see him lose. He's still very young and has so much room to grow that if he keeps his head on straight I can see him being a Mayweather type fighter in a few years.

              Canelo is already a star in Mexico and is on the brink of stardom in the US. I can see him being a De La Hoya type fighter too. He'll probably lose to the best guys he faces, but is good enough to be competitive and won't lose much support.

                Canelo needs to learn to speak English, he's an absolute idiot if he doesn't, it's the key to massive $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ for him
