'Battle of the Jr's, who do you think will make the biggest impact'

[CutMeMick]

So I was doing some searching and noticed how many Jr's we have in the sport at the moment..... Then started thinking which one of these kids was gonna have the bigger impact on the sport not necessairly bigger then their pops but just a bigger impact then the rest....

So heres a list of the Jr's I happened to come across and what I think about them.....

Jorge Paez Jr. (12-0) - Developing well, great reflexes moves well in the ring with just 12 fights quality of opposition is as good as it could be, hes already faced 1 other undefeated fighter he has good power in both hands.


Pipino Cuevas Jr. (10-0) - I read he packs a punch and has a really good work rate, quality of opposition could be better.


James McGirt Jr. (13-0) - Good skills, moves well and plus he uses his height to his advantage, hes a southpaw which has made it difficult for his opponents to hit him. Quality of opposition is as good as it could be.


Julio C. Chavez Jr. (29-0-1) - Nice work rate, likes to attack the body and can punch. He needs to work on his defense and how to use the ring, though I can tell you now and you can see this when you see him fight he fights very similar to JCC Sr. Considering no amateur back ground the quality of opposition is OK, it could be better IMO.


Ronald Hearns (13-0) - Good hand speed, packs a punch and uses the ring well. Quality of opposition is good, it could be better. He uses his reach and height well.


Roberto Duran Jr. (5-1) - From what I read he started off really well, he moved well in the ring used his jab a lot and had good reflexes. I see hes marked 'Inactive' now anyone know why?

Carlos De Leon Jr. (18-1-2) - Can't speak on him as I haven't seen or read anything on him......

Aaron Pryor Jr. (8-0) - From what I've read he boxes well, IMO he started his career a little to late to make any type of impact at some point hes 28 with just 8 fights...
Anyone seen or read anything on him?......

If I'm not mistaken other Juniors BUT don't quote me on this....

Ross Minter (16-1) - Haven't seen or read about him.... sorry!

Anyone else got any Jr's they've seen or read about?

Alright good to hear you got it working. Pretty cool page. Anyways....

James McGirt Jr.
From what I saw he was a very schooled fighter, southpaw very sound defensively. Well balanced, good defense. To be honest the memory is a little fuzzy, just going off a round by round I wrote. I do remember being impressed though.

Ronald Hearns
Seen one Hearns fight. Man, I wasn't impressed at all. I mean, he is very athletic, has a great jab, but he is just so off balance with that straight right. That looks to be his most powerful weapon and, I really think he is going to get flattened if he doesn't stop lunging with that. There is no way he can follow that up with anything because he has to get his feet set again. Not very big on him til he can control that right hand.

Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.
Throws a really good straight right hand and an even better left to the body. Puts the two together a lot, makes a deadly combo. I think the most telling fights are probably the Molina (I think that's his name?) but I haven't seen them. Still green though and has a long ways to go before he is a contender but he's young so no big deal.

Julio Cesar Chavez Jr wins out in my opinion, he has improved quite a bit over the last few years ! the rest of the Jr's lack something, in my opinion.. they just riding daddy's star !

Funny you mention JCC jr; I've seen a couple of his fights over the past few months on VS and was wondering why nobody ever mentioned him. With JCC having a huge legacy and his son starting out 29-0-1 I thought there would be a lot of talk about him, but I didnt even know he was a fighter until a few months back. It seems like he's getting his record nice and padded right now; but 30 fights and being undefeated aint too shabby for being 20 years old! I watched him beat up on a few guys who a 29-0 fighter shouldnt even be lookin at, but I guess since he is only 20 it makes it alright. Btw cc lords.. I cc you all the time man, love what you got to say!

Jorge Paez Jr, IMO isn't riding daddys star I say this for a few reasons....

1. When he was looking for promoters he didn't wan't his dad to accompany him or anything like that...

2. You rarely see or hear about Sr. being at his fights but Jr never forgets to say hello to him....

I like both Paez & Chavez Jr's.....

Well, I think since Manny already has Rahman Jr (who hasn't fought pro by the way) and Andy Lee, plus Kermit Cintron and not to mention the big stars he has, hes pretty much booked up to his neck.....
I still don't understand how the Kronk Gym closed.....

Good point about Peaz Jr.. I am not all that impressed with Peaz Jr. admittedly I only seen a few fights I didn't think he was all that they were hyping. Time will tell

[$kills$o$mooth]

The best up and coming "Jr" hands down is the kid Darnell Jiles Jr, seen him a few times on Espn friday night boxing and oh my lord the kid is gonna be very special, i'd back him to beat anyone of that list and he's only 18, those who have seen him may be inclined to suggest he's a little "flashy" but imo he's got everything in his game,

Confidence

Speed

Technical ability

Power

movement

Decent defence

And he can punch from some mad angles man , i think he's a cert to be a champion with-in 3 years,

peace

The only fighter I have been keeping my eye on is Paez Jr but he leaves a lot to be desired when it comes into comparison to his father. I really enjoyed Sr's fights. He was entertaining, put on a good show and had some pretty good fights too. I know I said I would up some fights and I will. I am upping some fights right now and I will get to that for ya Mick. His son to me looks sloppy, wild and wide and lacks some stamina the verdict is still out since he only has 12 fights but I don't see nothing happening here and as soon as he steps up I think he is going to get stepped on.

Was not impressed with JCC JR. so I passed on watching him. Am I missing something here? His father he ain't.

BTW CC 4 the thread CMM
