    Who gets your vote for the prospect of the year 2014? And, for my curiosity, why have you said that particular fighter?

    Usyk, Khytrov and Beterbiev even though when they turned pro they were almost beyond the prospect stage they've all had a very dominant beginning to the;r careers this year and the end of the last.

    Kosei Tanaka. Big year, massive win over Hara. Also Ryo Matsumoto deserve mention, he win in December 30 and he need to be in running.

    Heavyweight- Anthony Joshua/ Joseph Parker
    Cruiserweight- Usyk
    Light-Heavy- Beterbiev
    Super- Middleweight- Smith/ Ramirez
    Middleweight- Jason Quigley- Not necessarily prospect of the year but he is a very good prospect
    Light- Middleweight- Charlo brothers, maybe past prospect level but yet to do anything major
    Welterweight- Thurman
    Light-Welterweight- Vargas
    Lightweight- Verdejo
    Super-Featherweight- Estrella/ Naito
    Featherweight- Lomachenko/ Selby
    Super-Bantamweight- Galahad/ Guttierez
    Bantamweight- Cabellero
    Super-Flyweight- Inoue/ Yafai
    Not familiar with lower weight than this though but standout for me is probably Joshua/ Usyk

    I think it's a toss-up between Betterbelieve and Usyk

    Centeno is a contender, and Lomachenko is a world champ, neither are "prospects".
