The prospect poll, who do you think will shine the brightest in 2007?
With 2007 in sight, which one of these guys do you think will become a world beater, superstar, world champ, whatever you wanna call it in the coming year.

Just checked out boxrec, that's some bullshat I just said, he was on the undercard of Lacy v Calzaghe right down near the bottom, he looked a million bucks, and you could tell he was a Shaw/Birmingham fighter.

Jason Litzau this featherweight is tremendous fighter ! big things in 2007 for this kid ! ;)

Re: The prospect poll, who do you think will shine the brightest in 2007?
assuming this isn't limited to any weight class, someone else. I think Dennis Boytsov steps up his competition and makes an impact at the heavyweight level.

Bad Chad looks like an accident waiting to happen the moment he truly steps up.

I would not say Quintana or Williams are prospects anymore,they are seasoned pros! If quintana beats Cotto,he should have a big 2007.

I picked Lucian Bute out of that list.. I think he's a great prospect. He's taken an excellent route up the pro ranks and disposed of everyone he's faced easily, having been in with very respectable competition for his experience. Jason Litzau is also a guy who could really break through very explosive puncher with good technique. The Peterson brothers also could become champs, I think Anthony is a little better, they both need to be more active and step it up though.

Bernard Dunne!
just won the european belt, looks better each fight
definitly a future world champion!
another Irish man to look out 4 is Andy Lee, looks a great prospect!!

Re: The prospect poll, who do you think will shine the brightest in 2007?
Personally, I think that will be on the name of British boxing fans come 07 will be Nicky Cook, as his title shot against Scott Harrison has become a whole lot easier with Harrison's numerous troubles, and I believe he'll be a favourite as Harrison training in prison will be nothing like as sharp, as if he had had a perfect, unblemished training camp. As well as being undefeated, Cookie has impressed onthe European level, and an 07 matchup with Juan Manuel Marquez could well be on the cards if he makes his way past Harrison.

Re: The prospect poll, who do you think will shine the brightest in 2007?
I voted paul williams. I think 2007 will be a big year for him... Like someone mentioned i wouldn't consider all of those guys "prospects" anymore. Prospect wise I like Duddy who is also missing from your list
-
Re: The prospect poll, who do you think will shine the brightest in 2007?
Who was the guy that beat Michael Hunter this past weekend? I heard he looks awesome! It's cool DG bro,it's not my sig,it's Amat's,use it for as long as you want!!

Re: The prospect poll, who do you think will shine the brightest in 2007?
I voted for D-HOP i really like what i have seen so far from this kid. I think he can really push on in 2007!

Re: The prospect poll, who do you think will shine the brightest in 2007?
Heavyweights
Povetkin
Dimitrenko
Chambers
Witherspoon
Estrada

Dan mate, I'm gonna give you a cc for all the shit you've had thrown at you by unhappy fans because their fighter isn't on the list. A good topic, but with all prospects a lot of it is subjective. Anyhow, you did a great job on getting all the brits in there, and you can't be expected to know all the yanks coming through, there's 20 in every city across the land in the eyes of the fans. Great topic, and once again, 07 will be the year of the Cookie.

Re: The prospect poll, who do you think will shine the brightest in 2007?
I like the way Giovanii segura fights, and I have been waiting for Steven luevano to step up for a while. and Juan manuel lopez seem to be getting more popular.

Re: The prospect poll, who do you think will shine the brightest in 2007?
I had to give it to my man paulie...
i personally dont consider him a prospect i think hes on the line of making it..
but then again hes yet to score a world title so that makes him a prospect...
was a tough one though man!!
i think paul williams has got a lot of good coverage this year .. hes bound to blow up next year..
and ya all gotta be looking out for my other personal faves in the list..
Librado andrade, i hear hes moving to light heavy and theres not a great deal going on up there im hoping hes gona rumble and make it big up there....
And of course Alan ' sweetness ' Green.. hes got some issues with his skill atm but i recon hes gona blow up this next year big time... its just a shame that two people have the four titles and im not sure how he will fare against either.. definately has a shot at it though!!
think theres some great fights at super middle next year!
great thread.. and cc to dan for a very good list!!
Peace

Re: The prospect poll, who do you think will shine the brightest in 2007?
Quintana has the best shot at it, since he's already got the fight lined up that could get him there. And I think that one's a toss-up.

Steve Molitor, but he's a world champ now, he doesn't count. I guess I worded the titles, wrong, I only qualify fighters who are fringe contenders, they don't neccessarily have to be young.

I wouldn't say he's missing.. Unless this has been changed to prospects who were the most overrated, or were exposed the worst.. He won't be doing much imo, the Campos fight proved that.. Waaay too many flaws, the way he fights I can't see him ever being a contender to be honest.

Campas may have been old, but a fighter like him loses never loses his quality, you can't judge a fighter completly until they've been beaten IMO.
