Comments Thread For: Bob Arum Impressed By Trio of Top Rank Prospects

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Top Rank CEO Bob Arum was in attendance in Tuscon, Arizona this past weekend as his featherweight prospect, Oscar Valdez, improved to 18-0 (16 KO's) by stopping veteran Ernie Sanchez with an explosive left-hook in the third round.

"He looked extraordinarily good and I wouldn't hesitate to put him in with any featherweight in the world with the exception of my Ukranian beast," said the veteran promoter, referring to WBO titlist Vasyl Lomachenko.

Potential Big 3

All three of these guys are special talents, and are all extremely marketable. Very young and all three have the body types to eventually move up in higher weights.

To me Jo Jo Diaz, Errol Spence, and Jose Ramirez are by far the best talents from the 2012 US team. All 3 will be future champions. Jose has Freddie Roach and is being brought along very well. Probably a year away from a title opportunity.

Oscar Valdez might be the best of the three that Arum has, and he is ready for a title shot. He's got the entire package and will be a force next year. I would like to see him fight Evgeny Gradovich next.

Felix Verdejo is another special talent. Somewhere between Tito and Cotto. He's another guy with a complete skill set and will soon be ready for a title shot. He should fight a former title holder next.

I think we will see more of Verdejo and Valdez on HBO next year, and I think Ramirez will probably be featured on TruTV more often next year.
Bright Futures For These Guys

All of these guys are huge talents. Verdejo and Valdez are going to have a huge 2016. Very exciting fighters
