    Out of these four fighters, who do you believe has the best chance at becoming a future pound for pound #1 fighter and why?

    Ward cause he's the smartest of them all and has the speed and stamina to go with it. Also he's already got some big fights lined up

    I would say Ward has the best chance. Right now he is higher than the other 3 on P4P rankings (At least on my P4P rankings) and he has the toughest road in the next couple years so a few wins and he's near the top or right at the top. Plus, I would say he is the more rounded fighter at the moment than the other three.

    Ward or Bradley. They could already be reasonably considered top 10. That's a good sign.

    If Ward happens to sweep the tournament he could already have an argument for at least being top 3 pound for pound.

    and you gotta think that by then Pac and PBF will be retired so probably #1 IF he does it..

    If Ward can win the super six and also some how go up and beat Dawson he can be top five easy.

    I think Ward and Gamboa both have great shots. Ward will probably be HW champ one day. I think Bradley is outstanding but still a little overrated. Same with Alexander. Cue the abuse.

    Both Floyd and Pac make way too much money per fight for both to wanna retire within the next two years so I think both will still be around by then so we have to see how things pan out. Now if both are retired and Ward sweeps the tournament then he is my pick for p4p #1.

    That's my pick as well but he doesn't have the opponents that Ward has so that does give Ward the edge for now, until then enjoy this highlight.:smoke

    ward seems like he is on right path an probably least resistance an eventual showdown with chad dawson could set up new p4p champ. an the others are mentioned all could were that crown eventualy but road immedatly more diffucult bradley vs alexander h2h an gamboa vs lopez

    After ward wins the super six he still has alot of options. bute, p. williams, pavlik, s. martinez. Dawsons rep might be tarnished a lil if he ends up fighting bhop after bhop kills jones. Ward has the fights to do it.
