Your thoughts on prospects and any future favs?....

gamboa's padwork was really good but ive seen pretty equal displays by both guzman and khan.

 

I like Jorge Linares, Nonito Donaire, Yuriorkis Gamboa, David Haye, Mikkel Kessler, Miguel Cotto, Joachim Alcine, Lucian Bute, Jean Pascal, Herman Ngoudjo, Steve Molitor, Olivier Lontchi

many of those are established fighters but they are all guys i think can reach a higher status

 

How come that AJ Banal is not listed here. This kid is only 18 years old yet fights like a season veteran. A boxer with power in both hands. And most importantly, will be fighting for the WBA crown in June.

This kid is more impressive than Gamboa skillwise and had faced more stiff competition than any young prospect at the moment.

Here are some of his last 3 fights:

Here's the boxrec:

Now, try to compare the skill of this 18 years old relative to the 26 year old seasoned Gamboa (he had 400+ amateur fights for christ sake) and you will see the difference.
