    Here is your chance to be able to look back in a few years and say "I told you so".

    Is there anybody in the current olympics who can be something special as a pro?

    The Russian Southpaw LHW who fought last night, is the only one I've watched and really enjoyed seeing. I think he could go far.

    Shame I don't know his damn name!

    Oscar Valdez (Mexico) looks promising. Would crush Nevin in pros.

    Falcao (MW) looks like he would be a beast in the pro ranks.

    I think the British girl Nicola Adams (?) *could* be a star. Her fights were more exciting than the men (from what I saw at least) and she seemed a hit at the gate. I don't know how popular women's boxing is over there but I hear in Europe in general it's not popular. Anne Sophie Mathis has complained about never having backing in France, especially when compared to how well received Holly Holm is in Albuquerque.

    Other than that… Usain Bolt.

    He should be good at profs. Sad judges took his victory and robbed us of match with Lomachenko :( Not worst robbery though, but I hope he will turn pro after that and stop competing in that figure skating contest :)
