    Hey Iceman, give us a prediction of a current amateur whos going to be making it big in the pro's in the coming years.

    Vasyl Lomachencko is highly touted by most of us avid boxing fans.

    to tell u the truth I dont follow international amateur boxing as I once did...the computer scoring has REALLY put a dent in the game...

    I also remember seeing Ricardo Williams when he was 15 and 16...everyone back then trhouht he was going to be a BIG star...he had the potential to be one but got caught selling drugs and that and a physical conditioning issue held him back...he beat many top guys back then, including Miguel Cotto...

    Yeah Williams really looked like a shoe in to be a very good fighter, just goes to show mental fortitude is as important as natural ability.

    Basically just not being serious when you answer something or start a thread.

    Basically purposefully acting like one rather uneducated ***** in order to get some sort of response in return.

    Still, Johns stories makes for great reads, keep em' up champ. :good
