    Who do you think has the best chance to become a great champion and a P4P top 10?


    Andre Berto, Jorge Linares, and Juan Manuel Lopez don't count anymore because they all have belts, meaning they are no longer defined as prospects.

    :lol::lol:
    ... and Andre Berto

    on a serious note. Gamboa at 126-130 if he becomes disciplined in the ring.

    I'm not sold on the Peterson brothers but the rest of the list I like. I can't wait to see these young fighters grow...If I had to pick it be Ortiz he has all the tools and reminds me of a young Fernando Vargas.

    Youre gonna have to scratch Mares name off the list soon as he will KO penalosa to win his first title. It will be ugly, Mares in brutal beat down on penalosa.

    yup yup, I don't know about the brutal beat down part, but Penalosa will lose to Mares. I heard Golden Boy is trying to make the fight for one of their under cards in October, or November.

    I'd have to say James Kirkland, because of his frightening power in an open division. I would say Angulo too, but I just don't see him getting past Kirkland at the moment. Gamboa has to be the frontrunner because of his rapid progress, but I have a feeling he is going to be fed to the lions a bit early and suffer a career setback.

    I agree on Mares...but JCC Jr is not good, let alone a top prospect.
