    Great thread. Im happy some people with common sense that can see they both so great. As for the question, right now its hard to say who will be the next superstart, the next ATG. This kind of greatness doesnt come every year but lets wait and see on the young talent out there.

      In terms of heart and balls i sure hope there isnt going to be a new "floyd" in the near future.

        Rodriguez

        More than decent run for a 29 year old, he'll probably secure another couple of big names every year.

        good resume but being frank, there's only 1 hall of famer on that list.

            For real. last thing we need is another cherry picker as the fountainhead of boxing.

            Good news is GGG's future seems to be bright and has more in common with Pacquiao than Floyd.

                I think Mikey Garcia is a great talent but unfortunately for him the 130/135 division is deprived of any big names that will prevent him from being in significant showcase fights like we've seen in the Welterweight division the last couple years.

                  He has Gamboa at 135 if he want him...then if he ends up at 140 in the near future he may have Broner,and possibly Garcia and Provo...

                    Hall of Fame is kind of arbitrary doe. 5 world champs.

                    I expect he's referring to Froch but obviously it's impossible to tell until they actually vote.

                      I think Mikey Garcia has the skills, but I don't see anyone around his weight that could be a breakthrough to PPV star like Floyd or Manny.
