    Im not talkin about the current older accomplished fighters like Floyd, Pac, Mosley, Klitchkos, BHOP, or Cotto that already have a guaranteed spot im talking about the younger ones that have accomplished a lil bit, but still hungry.

    in my opinion:
    From what I see, Ward and Donaire have the potential so far and i got high hopes for Russell JR. i know theres more but i want to hear what yall think. From what u see so far, what current fighters do u think has the potential of being great?

    I really think Bradley has a chance. He isn't pretty at times but he's already dominated other elite comp in his weight class and has the heart of a warrior and can fight different styles. You will have to knock his head off to beat him. Holt pretty much did and he still kept stalking Holt.

    I agree with Donaire and Ward.

    As ugly as Ward's style can be, he's very well-rounded and adaptable, can fight on the outside, inside, mid-range, etc...Unlike young fighters like Berto and Khan, he's sound and relies on skills rather than athleticism and flashy handspeed. Far more substance to his game.

    i have a feeling that bradley will be one of those underrated and overlooked fighters when his career is done.

    3 and a half hours, 11 posts and 14 names in, and someone has yet to mention Kell Brook.
