Re: Which prospects are gonna step up to be contenders this year?
Damnit people beat me to Devon Alexander, he's really been taking steps back lately, but that is to be expected when you are managed by Don King. I hope he gets out from under king, or that he gets a shot soon.

We all know Concepcion will be fighting Champ Steven Luevano for the WBO Featherweight belt on May 2, 2009 as undercard of PAC vs. HIT main event...

Yeah that's why I'll send some reps your way for correctly picking Concepcion to get a title shot this year...
More reps coming if Concepcion will eventually wins the championship...
Cheers...

Re: Which prospects are gonna step up to be contenders this year?
Id like to see Jhonny Gonzalez and Humberto Soto get the spotlight.
I heard Soto is moving up to 135.
I cant wait to see
Pac vs. Hatton
conception vs. Luevano
Hopefully this event get even more stacked.:)

I'm the biggest Gonzalez fan here, he needs to work his way back up a bit still. 5-0 with 5 KOs in 2008 is a great run on the way back up, unfortunately he was a Solo Boxeo highlighted boxer and Solo Boxeo doesn't exist anymore. He is a Golden Boy fighter so hopefully he can get on some HBO undercards again which is what he needs to do to get a handle on the ladder to the way back up to the top of the division. I really want to see Gonzalez in against Caballero.

Yeh hopefully he can get on the HBOs
Gonzales reminds me of the quiet kid in class who can beat you up.;D
That Penalosa fight set him back quite a bit:(

Caballero vs. J-Gonz will be a good match-up. J-Gonz has good chances since Caballero has some problems dealing with boxers who can match his 6 foot height... J-Gonz is a tall boxer too...

For F**K sake hopefully Andre Ward. It's going on year number 5 and nothing as of yet for the gold medalist from the 2004 olympics.

Ward's fighting for some minor league straps tonight on Showtime. I still think he and Andre Dirrell have been moved along very slowly.
