    Its cause the younger fighters are babied and they continue to give title shots to washed up 40 year olds that haven't won a fight in 3 years.


    Except Broner of course. He was supposed to have an epic battle coming up with The Hitman Gary Sykes

      Gamboa, Canelo, Chavez Jr, Donaire

      Rios would be up there if he took his craft more seriously.

        Jose Benavidez is a no brainer as well as Broner.

          canelooooooooooooo!! that guys style is a very nice blend and his weapons are numerous. If he keeps it up he may be the next pacquiao or mayweather. He dismanted Shuga with smarter gameplan and way smarter skils. he also did it with patience and poise. LOOK OUT FOR THIS FIREPLUG!

              Gamboa of course, really like Broner, Mike Garcia and Gary Russell Jr., that Arnett kid also looks impressive, it is nice to see a young prospect that is already a vicious body puncher

              I don't think neither will be as "BIG" of a star as Mayweather or Pacquiao but all have STAR POTENTIAL

              the next Era is boxing looks like he is going to have WAY MORE OVERALL TALENT AND COMPETITION...hopefully they all be willing to fight each other when that time comes!

              but fans need to let these DEVELOP, stop trying to rush Mikey Garcia, Broner and Russell Jr. along, when their team around them feels they are ready for big fights, then they will start to take big fights

              oh and add Demetrius Andrade on my list, another impressive looking prospect!

                Broner maybe for the next Floyd but who knows til he's truely tested.

                The next Pac is a little easier. Take a fighter who can **** at a low weight, feed him styles tailored to him, faded veterans with a name, weight-drain opponents, duck styles tailored to beat him, and when the competition will still be stiff with all these advantages add PED's! Oh I also forgot to mention pay off the judges and tell the other fighter it's just business.

                    TBH Pacquiao didn't look like anything special when he was coming up.
