[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

By Thomas Gerbasi - Call it the perfect storm. What do you get when you take a boxer with an Olympic pedigree as an amateur and put him in a pro situation where he not only gets to compete on high-profile cards in his formative days, but also has a little domestic rivalry to deal with as well? You get BoxingScene.com's 2017 Prospect of the Year, Josh Taylor. Already on the short list of top up and comers in the running for last year's Prospect of the Year award...

Great pick

[jonnyc420]

Excellent pick, after Taylor I'd say Ryan Garcia, but as mentioned too raw but the kid is good and expect him to only go upwards from here with a massive following already behind him it will be easy to get derailed hope he has the right people around him as well as the drive to be great and not get distracted with things outside the ring.

But what about Erickson Lubin?

I’m a big fan of Taylor and think he could clean up at 140 but how the **** is he a prospect?? He’s a world ranked fighter, he’s just beat Miguel Vasquez FFS. Teofimo Lopez, Ryan Garcia, Josh Kelly etc are prospects, calling Taylor a prospect is ridiculous IMO

[jackkeane6]

He also wasn’t on Ring magazines nominations as he’s at world level
