who is your top prospect

Denis Boytsov, Russian heavyweight prospect, 13-0 with 13ko's against not great opposition but he is only 20 and still has some growth and muscle development left. Rumors that Don King attempted to lure him.

The Dirrels. I don't know which is better but Andre is a southpaw. He(/they) are like the middleweight version of ray leonard. they will both snatch JT's belt and probly could now.

Verquan "The Show" Kimbrough 14-0-1 (7ko)

Outstanding amateur boxer compiling wins of over 200+ with less than 30 losses in the amateurs. Was to go to Athens but turned it down to turn pro. Manny Steward had his eye on him during his amateur career.

Currently the IBA Americas featherweight champion will be fighting for the IBA Featherweight title this upcoming week on the 13th.

Opponents win/loss record combined is 74-99-7

He is my top prospect

My 2nd prospect is Monty-Meza Clay 19-0 (12kos) crow
d pleasing fighter anybody who sees him will love watching this guy. He also has a fight coming up on the 13th and then on the 12th of May he meets Edner Cherry which will show whether he is a prospect or a fringe contender. He is also the IBA/IBC Super featherweight champion.

Monty-Meza Clays opponents win loss record combined is 150-186-18

Of course I COULD name guys like Escobedo but I am going with who I have saw personally inside the gym, trained and sparred with and have followed them more so than a guy pulled out of the Olympics.....Monty-Meza is a tough durable guy who can hit hard and has decent speed and power but is a bit of a brawler which worries me against Cherry which will be a HUGE step up and entertaining. Verquan is a slick very quick boxer with ok power his speed and skills is where he shines. He throws 6-8 combinations of punches and is very exciting to watch. He also is very durable and has been tested at numerous 10 round fights...I really think this guy is going to elevate into the top 10 status one day.

Both fighters have been featured on ESPN/Fox Sports

I like "Bad" Chad Dawson and Edison "Pantera" Miranda right now.Dawson appears to have the complete package and is being trained by Dan Birmingham.

Hence the name prospect my friend...Many busts come and come, I took the heat for Okine and still am. I think Monty-Meza is a good fighter notice I didnt say he would be a top 10 fighter someday? He is a brawler/boxer with power and speed and he will eventually lose his defense isnt to good but he is crowd pleasing and should make for an interesting fight against Edner....However, I still think Verquan is still the top dog on my prospects list that guy is f'n amazing in the ring.
