No particular order..
Abner Mares - He has been a throwback fighter since his Perez fight and damn near fought anyone on his way up(in GBP stable). He even attempted to fight Donaire back when he was a monster, before Rigo. He was at one point a top PFP fighter but since his loss to Gonzalez he has yet to return to action, impatiently waiting to see his return. Always showed great versatility in the ring, can't wait to see what new tricks he picked up.
Carl Frampton - This kid has all the right tools to get far in the sport. Only 18 fights and he is already fighting what seems to be an unstoppable machine, for the second time. Going into the rematch against Kiko he has the advantage of having knocked him out before but Kiko has a shiny crown this time.
Shinsuke Yamanaka - After his step up against Yasuda there was no turning back. He has had wars, one including fellow countryman Iwasa when Iwasa was rising to notoriety in Japan. He captured the WBC World Championship by K.O.ing Esquivel in an exciting match up and defended it against the likes of Vic Darch, Rojas and Guevara. K.O.ing all challengers not named Vic so far and doing it… with style
Juan Francisco Estrada - Won a rugged tournament in Mexico that lead him to a title shot against Roman Gonzalez..however it was at 108, south of what Estrada has fought at. He managed to drop down and give an excellent account of himself against a diamond in boxing before returning to his more comfortable weight. There he secured a victory over flyweight terror Brian Viloria and has defended his crowns twice thus far… with a possible mega mini fight against Segura looming over Mexico, Estrada's reign has just begun.
Leo Santa Cruz - I give this guy a lot of flack but it's only because I'm aware of his abilities. He has the stamina and pressure to crack anyone in his weight class. He is young but one can only hide under such veil for so long. Although he has a decent resume I would love to see him in the ring with the more legacy inflating names around such as Rigo, Frampton, Quigg, Kiko or even Avalos before moving up. Once at FW he will be in one of the deepest weights in current boxing and perhaps we will see what he is really made of.
