    Whoever the powers that be want it to be - basically whoever would make them the most money. Doesn't even have to be the most outstanding talent but just someone people will pay to see over and over again

    The three with the biggest potential are Canelo, Keith Thurman and GGG. All three need career-defining wins.

    An outside choice but if Eubank Jr keeps winning he has all the ingredients to be massive and in a weight range with plenty of name opponents.

    We are looking for a future superstar. So someone who will emerge 2016? When Floyd has left.

    Golovkin wont be it. Hes not a big crowd puller now and has held a Belt since 2010!

    It might be Keith Thurman or maybe a fighter we don't know or haven't heard much of yet.

    Well... the question says "next".
    Technically, Canelo was already handed that title back.... what.... 40 fights ago?

    Hmm, Eubank Jr is getting his chance to become a national superstar now against Saunders. Just like his old man v Benn, he didnt have any name opponents and battered Benn. This is the start of a special fighter.

    A lot of top names in the sport are giving Eubank Jr glowing praise after seeing him in action or facing him in sparring. Froch thought enough of him to use him in his most important fight. Could billy Joe force Froch back?

    No probably not because he is not a super middle weight unlike JR who thinks he has the right to fight at any weight, against anyone, without having to fight a live body first. It would take Froch a while to catch Saunders though.
