    The top 10 American prospects still trump any other 2 nations combined, easily.

    Tavoris Cloud, both Petersons, and Chris Arreola. Arreola especially because of his raw nature which appeals to casual fans.

    Too bad about Berto to and Kirkland. I thought they would be at the top as well. Kirkland seems to be content having half assed training and fighting schedule. I guess Berto is one dimensional and injury prone. All though quite a few have fallen short I think the US will continue to produce great boxers, I mean look at that guy Adrian Broner, you may not have heard about him yet but he is definitely the next Floyd, just ask him.

    Thurman could be the new Berto.

    I honestly had high hopes for Berto, he had blistering speed which I was really impressed with. I have high hopes for Thurman too but you can never tell with certainty.

    Same here, I had high hopes for Berto. I also had high hopes for Victor Ortiz and even Amir Khan, but eventually as their careers progress, people saw the flaws. All 3 never reached that superstar level, which only a few in the sport has attained.

    Berto has legs like a Flamingo.
    No wonder you like GG...lol

    Golovkin has the legs of a crack-addicted wheel-chair bound polio victim.

    There's not much coming through from what I can see. My list would be Easter, Waaren and Thurman but they don't have anyone who's gonna sell like PAC or Floyd

    I'm sometimes curious if Andre Ward can pull it of. Certainly not the top but become a superstar.At this point certainly not but I think he has the ability and talent to get there but at this point he has a Wladish style which will probably guarantee him a good record but certainly not endear him to the fans. Perhaps he can break through at some point, but I doubt it
