    Quiet honestly i don't really see any ATG potential in those weight classes once Pac and May retire the class A fighters would be gone.

    the only fighter who i see just below these guys is timothy Bradley he has been in their with the best not only that but with true ATG material.

    Cotto is also up their but he needs a win over a class A opponent he has always fallen short.

    what do you guys think?

    I think Felix Verdejo will end up there. He's only just turned 21 and is 135lbs already and has a frame that would fill out.

    Neither started at 147 , maybe look for guys in lower weights who will be moving up over the next few years as Pac and Money did?
