    -Nonito Donaire

    -Adrien Broner

    -Gary Russell


    Out of the 3 I'd have to say the boxer/puncher Donaire! He's got great skills along with amazing power to end the fight with one punch.

    Broner showed vunerability against Ponce De Leon and in my opinion, recieved a gift decision in that fight. He's more worried about looking cute than actually boxing.

    Russell looks promising. Has quick hands and puts punches together nicely, but lacks power and charisma. He was put in the ring with a made to order opponent and failed to impress or make a statment.

    Donaire. When Pac and Mayweather retire that guy's gonna be number 1 on about every P4P list.

    Donaire is far from a prospect hes a certainty.

    The other two are promising specially Russell but they still have a long way to go.

    Exactly, Donaire is no prospect but I say he has the better career then the other two.

    Of the 3, I see Broner getting exposed rather quick. Russell seems more disciplined. If Donaire was in a higher weight class, he would be boxings next superstar!

    He has by far the better career so far.

    His wins over Montiel and Vic alone are better than anything the other two have done so far not to mention hes already a two division titlist(should have been three if it wasnt for the incompetence of the alphabet organizations) and a top five pound for pound fighter, hes on a different level and at a more advanced stage compared to the other two.

    Of course, he's a lot further in his career then the other two. I'm just saying I don't they will accomplish what Donaire has/will.

    Donaire is already a star and could be bigger if it wasnt for his stupidity outside of the ring letting his bikini model wife run his career and make stupid decisions for him which ended up killing all the momentum he built following his spectacular KO of Montiel and almost ruined his career.

    Hopefully he gets back on track so we get to see him against the likes of Gamboa,Rigo,Juanma etc.

    Donaire is about to be 29 years old, has been fighting for several years, he's won multiple titles in mutliple divisions, he's beaten quality fighters, and is top 3 p4p. He is far from a prospect.

    Neither do i.

    In Donaire i see a guy with the size and ability to be a champ all the way to 135 pounds while the other two might go on to have good careers but i dont think they will reach the heights i think Donaire will, but boxing is very unpredictable so we will just have to wait and see how things unfold.

    Donaire not a prospect bro, I see more goods in Broner... then the recently over hyped Russel.
