    damn was coming on here to write an essay on gamboa lol

    i'll go with paul appleby, beautiful body puncher, good fundemetal boxing skills, nice hand speed could go a long way, needs to work on his defence and not look to go to war as much and work from the outside where he is good but is definetly a talent worth watching out for

    Certainly NOT Chris Arreola, and I have less than glowing hope for Povetkin, now.


    I would say I am pulling for Haye, and that big meaty Australain dude.........heavyweight. Forget his name.

    Alexander Alexeev,cruiser weight from Russia,former amateur star,Solis' great rival at the amateurs,feared for his firepower.
    He has all the tools to be a long reigning world title holder in one of the hottest weight division out there.

    Gamboa, Eric fields, Kirkland, Victor Ortiz, Concepcion & Banal. These guys are my sure thing.

    Being from RI Im expecting big things from Matt Godfrey at cruiserweight. He's a solid prospect who's got a ton of potential, but its way to soon for him to be the WBC's #1 contender.

    He is scheduled to face Czech silver olympist Rudolf Kraj in a final eliminator for a shot at Haye's title.
    Lets see how Godfrey fares against a very decent cruiser who isnt an outstanding boxer,but very good in almost all departments.

    But I for my part would bet my house on Alexeev against either Kraj and Godfrey.I am not really sure whether either of Kraj or Godfrey would be able to go the full 12 rounds with Alexeev.
    Dont get me wrong! Godfrey is a good boxer,and so is Kraj,but Alexeev seems to play in a different league.

    Grzegorz Proksa.

    13 Fights. 8 KO's.

    I expect him to get big. He has a nice southpaw style and hes fast. I seen practically all of his fights, least 4 times each. Proksa is the future of Polish Boxing.

    Paul Appleby he seems to be a kid who looks to be aiming for big things watched him fighting on friday night against a hungarian who ia m sure i have seen fighting welterweight and he looks to be good with the body shots , and quite a solid puncher if he can hold his own with a welterweight considerin appleby is a featherweight he is my pick for the future .

    No one is comparable to Gamboa, but some prospects that I could see having a very good future are Eric Fields, Daniel Jacobs, and Golovkin.
