    exactly inoue skipped a division and and all, his already in my top 10

    iv no idea how crawford won fighter of the year apart from being american tbh

    inoue was the king of last year and made the impossible look easy

    Notice who yamanaka suddenly appeared in the ring top 10?:smoke

    expect him to fight golden boys Randy cabellero next, they want a ready made excuse to put randy in the top 10:smoke

    Put down Joshua. He has so much upside. Don't think he's near his full potential yet.

    He could be around for another 10..even 15 years at the top

    Verdejo looks like a minature Roy Jones, scary good, one of the most promising, if not THE most promising. Spence a close 2nd. But I like going for the more complete fighters, alil flash every now and then, but the ones that can do it all. I think Sammy Vasquez Jr and Hugo Centeno Jr getting alil overlooked, but they learning their craft silently without all the pressure to be the next golden boys.

    What worries me about Verdejo- if he is as good as they say, why haven't they stepped him up yet. It's not like the top 20 or so Lightweights are a murders row

    If beterbiev is considered a prospect clearly beterbiev. I don't consider him one so I'd say Spence. Smith, Campbell, and Zurdo clearly don't belong with the other names.

    Be honest- have you ever seen a Callum Smith or Luke Campbell fight or are you just assuming they are "British bums" like you did Kell Brook before he schooled Adrian Broner's new dad

    Yeah, I've seen all the smith's fight, and campbell. I never said they were bums, they just dont belong anywhere close to being labelled the best prospect.

    I know but he's still yet to fight anyone in the top 50. He only ranked 49th by Boxrec now.
