Could anyone give me a list of the prospects you think qualify for Prospect of the Year?

Dude! I'm on the same boat. I can't decide on who I think should be prospect of the year either. I see flaws in a bunch of them, it's just up to me to figure out which would be the easiest to work on. I don't know why my indeciseveness on this is bothering me...

its even harder cause people seem to have different definition of the word prospect. But anyway just vote for Bernabe Concepcion.

Prospect is so tough because it's so vague. Some guys like Jacobs for instance look incredibly talented but not tested yet. I think one person who should get consideration is Andre Dirrell. I'm big on Andre Ward but Dirrell has been explosive this year and he has showed grit after being hurt by Hanshaw and coming back to win in spectacular style and then looked very good twice more this year against good fighters.

Another one that not a lot of people know about, Beibut Shumenov has been great this year. He bailed on the 2008 Olympics and went pro instead and started off his career knocking both Donnell Wiggins and Lavell Finger out in the first round in his 3rd and 4th fights and then outpointed Montell Griffin.

He fights Kelvin Davis yet. Unfortunately, since he's fighting in Kazachstan there isn't much video out there on him as a pro but there is plenty from his amateur days and I think his pro debut is somewhere on youtube.
