    I think once he steps up in Competition...he will be humbled quick!!!
    Decent fighter though.



    Ok,I respect your opinion.He's only 21 though.Thats why he is still fighting this kind of competition.

    I read that thread....Your right, it was a GREAT READ!!!

    It kinda' what inspired this thread. I would like to take a deeper look at each division from now to the next 3 years. But it may require a little more research!!!

    I doubt boxing will exist in 6-7 years. Floyd would've retired so the sport will be dead, will it not?:think

    Again...There is nothing keeping/preventing nor stopping you from enlightening me (or other posters) about talent from other parts of the Globe.

    But to reply with insults....only tells other poster about you!!!!

    Khan will be ruling 140 in 5 years time, no doubt about it.

    Doesn't Rau'Shee Warren fight at flyweight??? I doubt he ever makes it as high as 122. Dude's really small.

    If you're gonna mention amateurs, you need to mention Vasyl Lomachenko, who's way the hell better of a pro prospect than any other amateur right now.

    There are tons of good up and coming names at 160. While I like Jacobs a lot, I don't think Guerrero (who I love as a fighter) would even be in the top 5 among the prospects in the weight class. I'd have Jacobs, Matt Korobov, Gennady Golovkin, Dmitry Pirog and Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam all ahead of him.

    I agree with Korobov...But I think he will move up in weight quickly. There have been rumors already about him having trouble making weight....(just rumors though).

    N'Jikam didn't impress me that much...Golovkin and Pirog are indeed fighters that will challenge for TOP spot in their divisions.

    The fighters I named are the fighters that i have seen MORE of...It may appear to be a bias...but its based on exposure in my "neck of the woods".

    Example...I have seen "ALL" of Hylon Williams, Omar Henry and Danny Jacobs, Saul Alverez and Fernando Guererro's fights. I have only seen a small handful of some of the "International" Prospects in action.

    I met a young amatuer heavyweight the other day, and watched 3 of his fights on tape. This kid knocked all 3 guys out. He's only 16 years old, but he plans to turn pro at 18. His name is Gunner Austin. I'm going to a tourney at the end of this month, and if he does as well as he did on the tape, I'll dub him Gunner "The Big Gun" Austin!
