    What about Marquez? Or is he fighting at 126 now aswell?

    It's a very good fight yes, but I think JuanMa is far too skilled for Cabellero.

    Which Marquez? Rafa is fighting at Feather now, mate, unless he's changed his mind:good. Izzy is still on hiatus as well:-(. I also agree^^^, I don't see Caballero winning but I still want to see the fight.

    Fighters I'd pick from right now would be:

    Paul Williams
    Nonito Donaire
    Juanma
    Mikkel Kessler (not sure how long he will fight into the next decade but he's about 29 right now and if he wins the tournament....)

    other possibilities:
    Edwin Valero
    Jorge Linares
    Gamboa

    Maybe one of the young Cubans like Lara or Rigondeaux......
    Matt Korobov looks highly impressive as well, as far as the fighters just getting started..

    Daniel Jacobs or Vasyl Lomachenko

    Juanma could very well dominate the first half of the decade, but he's already 26, and guys his size usually don't have much of a career after about age 32. Lomachenko is my sleeper though. Too bad he's not going pro until 2012, but he was by far the best pro prospect in the Olympics, and with his skills and talent and age, I could see him being a dominant champion for a very long time.

    And for a 19 year old, I still love Marvin Sonsona. It's unlikely he'll be a dominant force, but pretty likely we'll be hearing his name for a long, long time. Fighting at flyweight now, but has the frame to move all the way up to lightweight eventually, IMO.

    Rigondeaux is not that young now - I think he's nearly 29
