    No way about Tyson FUry, or the Kirkland-Julio winner, Kirkland is has way too many holes in his defense, and a poor chin, a good boxer would pick him apart, and Julio isn't all that either.

    Guys to watch are

    Demetrius Andrade, Gary Russell Jr (and all these brothers when they eventually go pro, so start watching them in the amateurs), Erislandy Lara, Gamboa(could still getting bigger in popularity), Rigondeaux, Raushee Warren(if he ever goes pro), Omar Henry, DeGale, Matt Korobov, that other guy with big wins already, Beibut Shumenov, Juan Manuel Lopez, Victor Ortiz, Danny Jacobs, Petterson brothers, Dirrell, Andre Ward, Amir Khan.

    Obviously there can be obstacles in any of these guys roads, but these are the guys I see likely to do well in the future, though obviously some of them will fall due to bad chins, mistakes they can't correct, etc.

    If your looking for the next american Roy Jones or Mayweather caliber fighter, then I suggest watching Rau'Shee Warren, and the Gary Russell brothers their credentials are great for their age, they have amazing athletic ability, they are tough, but obviously there are other qualities PBF and RJJ had, and I think out of 6 amazing brothers, and Rau'Shee there is bound to be at least one of them that is amazing at the pro level.

    Also look to Brittain and Thailand, their amateur programs are going crazy, which means better athletes and better coaching is happening. China too, if they ever let their amateur boxers go.
