    I really think Saul Alvarez is the goods IF they match him slowly and properly over the next five years and keep his ass at 154... the only issue he has is speed. keep him away from Welterweight... and he could be the next Oscar De La Hoya with a little luck. Thoughts? Who is a better prospect?

    Gennady Golovkin, though he may be a little bit more than a prospect.

    Murderous power in both hands, physically pretty good, very good skillset and a well-schooled background. Would annihilate pretty much every other MW out there IMO.

    It's really hard to narrow it down to one fighter. Great answer with Jose Benavidez Jr though, I'm really pulling for Gary Russell Jr to polish up his skills.

    There is way too many.
    Alvarez does stand out.
    Lara
    Rios
    Ortiz
    Kirkland.. not so much since he could have lost it.
    Mares

    Tim Coleman got a gift against Mike Arnaoutis for my money.


    Rigondeaux seems to have it all from what ive seen, although its hard to tell based on who he has fought.
