Hopefully some young British fighters like Frankie Gavin, Billy Joe Saunders, James DeGale, Darren Sutherland (Irish I'm not nicking him!), and George Groves can make an impact. I just hope the Frank Warren promoted ones arent protected to a ridiculous level and we get to see some great fights.
i fink nathan cleaverly is a great prospect t be the next britsh great .......... and also frankie gavin .......
who would've thought in 1999 that the boxer of this decade would be Manny Pacquiao? who would've thought in 1989 that RJJ would be the boxer of the 90s. (in july 1989 RJJ had only had 2 fights) I'm gonna go ahead and say Guillermo Rigondeaux will be boxer of the 2010s despite his age. Others in the running are JuanMa, Donaire, and Linares. Its the decade of the little fellas.
Well Said. Also just by Amir going up to light welter, his chin seemed to improve and he took a fair few punches bang on from Kotelnik. He's only 22 so time is on his side.
Juan ma lopez would be my pick. But there is kell brook, gavin and Cleverly from Britain, Sutherland. Donaire the cuban prospects and Korobov looks the deal.
Probably a fair number of well-informed people. It was pretty obvious that he was the best prospect from the Olympics. Which is why I picked Lomachenko, despite the fact that he isn't turning pro for 2 - 3 more years.
i was also thinking definitely donaire and prolly linares. just didn't have the gutts to spit out linares yet.
