Young fighters today who can achieve Pac or Floyd greatness and popularity?

Definitely not Andre Ward

 

JuanMa is a prospect. People love to see fights with knockdowns coz they find the excitement there.

 

Amir Khan's large frame would allow him to move up in weight even though i bilieve he's over rated, but maybe he can prove me wrong. He also has some charisma to him so that'll help
Also maybe that little Bam Bam kid can become great lol. I know it sounds dumb now, but he already has some celebity to him and if he becomes real good, he can have a lot of hype to him

There is couple waiting in the wings...
With potential to make BIG $
(Achievements that's a different story, Only time will tell that)

Khan
Chavez Jr.
Alvarez
JM. Lopez
Off the top that spring to mind.

 

No one anytime soon. I don't see a single fighter that possesses the incredible skill set that Pac and Floyd possess.

Maybe Donaire? Lemieux is also a good prospect.

 

Not a single one comes to mind.

 

I think Tim Bradley has a very slim chance of being a somewhat big star (but not approaching Pac or PBF status) because like Pacman, his fights are always entertaining and he has the heart of a warrior. He comes to fight and he loves taking on the best. But his chin is a big issue and he can't really move up much in weight.

 

Freddie Roach's 18 year old prospect Jose Benavidez 8-0(8) is a 6 foot light welterweight so I can definitely see him making it up to at least middleweight and he's got some hype to him also and has a good coach

wsup with guzman?

 

I have a hard time thinking of any that will make the jump to the next level.
-Paul Williams if he wins the middleweight title and the two P4P kings retire soon.
-Say what you want about Andre Ward, but he's an Olympic gold medalist who is already fighting the best in boxing's best platform (Super Six, in theory). If he beats Froch, Abraham, and Bute consecutively after Bika, that'd be hard to ignore.
-Nonito Donaire seems possible, but half of his competition post-Darchinyan has been nigh worse than fodder. The guy is Philipino and promoted by TR but can't get on a Pacquiao undercard.
-I'd think Guerrero has a chance (obviously not quite to level of Floyd or Manny), if nothing else for these critical reasons: 1) story of wife battling leaukimia, 2) attractive looking white guy, 3) fights at historic lightweight class and all this would pend on him taking down respected legend JMM.

 

Chavez Jr. is surprisingly popular, and there's a lot of room for him to improve under Roach. He certainly has the potential; really just needs two breakout fights to become a recognized contender.

 

Khan is the only one that comes to mind. He has the pedigree, and the biggest promotional company behind him. I'll throw Lemieux out there also, as he is exciting and is white. If he speaks english I could see him being popular outside Canada. KOTV is already behind him calling him "KOTV favorite" and showing many of his fights. Not sure how many countries that's showed in, but it's really the only boxing show where I'm at.
