    pretty much what I was gonna put. Benavidez looks like the whole package and David has a real good corner, work ethic and power and techinque

    Canelo without a doubt!

    The kid is young and still has a lot of learning to do but already he is showing signs of being a beast in that ring!!!

    Lemieux, Degale and Benavidez for me have the best chance. Canelo is a GBP hypejob who will probably get exposed for his lack of speed once he steps up his comp.

    Alvarez and Lemieux have long been the two guys to strike me as future stars, but I think that DeGale and Benavidez will go further in terms of being great.

    Eh, Lemieux has just as many limitations as Canelo, IMO. Stick him in there with a tall guy who can box and punch enough to keep David off of him, and he'll lose a decision I suspect.

    you know i wasn't that impressed with him at first because i didn't huge power or great speed. but after watching him some more i can see he's an all round fighter. he has enough pop to get respect, has good speed if not great, good skill as he can box from range and inside. he's not an explosive guy like lemieux or andrade but he might be a better all round fighter than both.

    personally i like james degale, but maybe im biased. i cant wait for the middle weights to start fighting. just check these names out: alverez, andrade, lara, korobov, golovkin, martyrosyan, foreman, lemieux, jacobs, pirog, martinez, abraham, guerrero. talent packed light middle and middle. all young guys too.

    Benevidez or James De Gale.

    Canelo is the most overrated prospect in the world. I'm convinced Lara would knock him out.

    Lemieux is good but people fail to recognise his lack of versatility. Dues to his limitations, he'll be beaten at some stage but will have some good wins too.

    I haven't seen enough of Andrade to make an assessment.

    yeah think thats true about lemieux. the middle weight will be packed in a year or two with good boxers like lara, golovkin and pirog. can't see him just blowing them guys out. but he's a great fighter to have around. he'll make for some exciting nights. maybe he'll have like a roberto duran but not as dominant. very exciting but lose quite a few fights.

    DeGale.

    Andrade will be a mega bust.
