    Amir Khan got the potential to become a superstar.He is still young and will develop over the next years.I think Roach can do something great with him.My only concern is his chin...Hopefully it´s not that weak as a lot of us thinks.His boxing skills are very promissing IMO.
    And then there is Andre Ward...Witch i really dont like....But if he wins the super 6,he could aswell become the next SMW star.But i will wait until i see him fight a great fight outside California...But lots of potential there too...

    Lucky? Not at all. You have to be very good if you are going to hold a belt at 126. If Tony ever gets a title shot he can easily beat Orlando Salido who is the IBF champion. WBC champion Elio Rojas, that fight is winnable. Tony matches up well with JuanMa as well. Both fighters are skilled, have power, and have decent chins. WBA champ Chris John has better skills, but he is getting up there in age and every month it seems as though he has some sort of sickness. So, he may'be on the down slope, but a fight between those two will probably never happen. So, lucky to be a titleholder? Not at all. Being a future superstar in Boxing? highly doubtful, but still possible. I figure I would spice this thread up instead of just playing the same ole record of Alverez, Gamboa, Khan etc. etc.

    One of the most skilled boxer. I have ever seen. Let's see what he can do at 118 and above. Where he is not draining as much but he needs to tighten up that defense coz there heavy hitters up thurr.

    I think Khan and Alvarez will be superstars in a few years time. Possibly Gamboa as well.

    This is the correct answer.

    I'd throw in Gamboa too, although he might be to small.

    Saul Alvarez .

    Maybe Khan I would like to see him in a real test to be sure.

    Early days yet but maybe within 5 years or so Carl Frampton looks like he has the whole package to become a superstar.
