    Spence and Kavaliauskas are the most exciting. Ponomarev looked good. Shelestyuk is horrible imo. But we still need to see them step up a level or two before we can truly see who is the best. But imo it'll be Spence and Kavaliauskas.

    Funny how 147 is supposedly the glamour division cause its the only division yanks dominate. Yet theres not much talk about 147 prospects, yet theres a lot of talk about heavyweight prospects.

    The Who Can Mexican is Okay, I'm not ready to proclaim him the next big thing but he's decent. I wouldn't be shocked if he got outboxed in the near future.

    Gomez and Benavidez are light welters

    I remember a few years ago when Senchenko and Zaveck were world champs, the best welter prospects were seen as Mike Jones, Selcuk Aydin, Kell Brook, Brad Solomon.... only special K proved to be legit.

    Not for long, Gomez can't make the weight anymore and Benavidez it wouldn't shock me if he moved up soon, he's a big kid.

    People are talking about Sadam Ali and Error Spence jr like they are destined to be the top Welterweight kings.
