Jose benavidez jr is making a comeback after being shot last summer. Also I like josh Kelly... I'm usually a not fan of his 'flashy' style but I think he has loads of natural ability and the fundamentals to fall back on.
There's a lot of quality prospects coming up at 147 - Egidijius Kavaliauskas Alexander Besputin Konstantin Ponomarev Josh Kelly Kerman Lejarraga Custio Clayton Kudratillo Abdukakhorov Radzhab Butaev Eimantas Stanionis Sergey Lubkovich Ivan Golub Taras Shelestyuk Khuseyn Baysangurov Serhii Bohachuk Lewis Crocker Fabian Andre Maidana
guys like Kavaliauskas, Besputin, Stanionis, Butaev will be serious players in 2-3 years bums like Peterson, Khan, Broner, Vargas will be long gone by then.
As calling them bums is very disrespecful i have to agree with you...but i have a question...how can i catch up on up and comming prospects as i dont kno if all of there fights are televised plus info on actually who to watch...im subcribed to a number a youtube boxing media outlets but none of them highlight the youngsters im not sure who to watcjmh for or where to look to watch for em...lol
I really wouldnt like to see Broner up at 147, i think 140 is where he should see out the remainder of his career. Moving to Welterweight ended him.
Your probably right as terrance crawford just moved up leaving a big talent void. If broner can leave absolutely all the b.s behind him...he could take over 140...but in reality his body wont let him do that. He looked drained vs mikey and had no pop on his punches as where used to seeing from him..his career might jus end out with him jus putting up valiant efforts against top contenders and losing decisions based off low work rate...him holding any type of belt means absolutely nothing at this point and hopefully he doesnt get a bogus title shot without earning it again. His biggest draw is his self promotion and on occasion he can bring elite level skills to the table always making for exciting fights...but its 50/50 ..thats the "problem".
Yeah well, we could make a list that long of ww fights the last 36 months that should've happened but didn't...
He won yesterday night on a wide UD in Colombia against the always tough Johan Perez. Great prospect for the next 2-3 years.
Of course thats the case bro. But i guess what im asking is that if THESE fights dont happen...WHO should i be paying attention to atleast in 2018 and HOW can i find these new guys to watch..or rather where should i be looking. How can i find these guys if there fights are not televised...
