    A couple of these guys may have, or definately have, already peaked but still:
    Kazuto Ioka
    Shinsuke Yamanaka
    the Kameda brothers
    Leo Santa Cruz
    Mario Rodriguez
    Adrian Hernandez
    Sergei Kovalev
    Bryant Jennings
    Moruti Mthalane
    Thomas Oosthuizen
    Argenis Mendez

    * my list only features a few "prospects," the rest of them I view as up and coming top tier fighters (most of them are, I know, but I'm saying that I believe in them).

    Some guys I'm back and forth on like Carl Frampton, Gary Russell, Keith Thurman, etc.

    About a year ago, he said he would retire if he couldn't get a top 5 MW opponent... not quite so, but I really see Pirog retiring after 5 fights or less no matter what or when they are. So, I think Pirog is not what this thread is about; up and coming boxers.

    Leo Santa Cruz, constant work to the body with those hooks and decent defense breaks down all of his opponents. A machine.
