Best American Prospect at 168

[WelshDevilRob]

I've only seen a few fights of each fighter - probably more of Allan Green as he's been a contender awhile longer than the other two.

Of the 3; my favourite to watch stylewise is Andre Dirrell - when he lets those hands go it is truly amazing.

Who goes the furthest? Well I think Green will challenge for a title but lose - he is a decent name and a worthy challenger but at the moment I can see all of the current champions beating him.

Andre Ward - I'm not sold on, he's looked a little shaky at the lower level but does possess a good defensive skills. I think he's going to come unstuck against Edison Miranda and that will be the end of him - if he can take 'Pantera's' power and wins then he will have a great future.

Andre Dirrell - Of the 3; he is where I would put my money. He seems an exciting talent who can switch hit with ease. He seems to lack abit of power but the speed more than makes up for it.
Dirrell has the potential to be a major star.

I wouldn't shocked to see Ward get by Miranda. He has good footwork, keeps his hands in good position, and hits pretty hard (though his jab is more range finder than punishing weapon). With the exception of Eastman, all the guys Miranda has beaten have been lower level fighters.

Quite alot of posters have Ward as the favourite going in. I am abit biased towards Edison as he's one of my favourite fighters.

This is a hard fight to pick. Edison has lost whenever he has stepped in with top level fighters, but Ward is pretty much were Carl Froch was before the Pascal fight, maybe a little ahead in terms of competition faced. He hast the amateur pedigree, he has been hyped a little, and it remains to be seen if he will be great or just good.

I think Edson is a Ward's Jean Pascal. Pascal was made for Froch because he was talented enough to test him, but he doesn't punch hard enough to hurt him. The only was Froch was going to lose was if Pascal was so fast that he could outpoint him. In this fight, Edison is can punch. That makes him dangerous and credible. He's been in with world class fighters and beaten some OK guys, better guys than Ward has fought. There's a real chance he could KO Ward. At the same time, he has limited skill and we know he can be KO'd.

I like Pantera, too, but unfortunately, this is his role now. He's a test horse. He's perfect for the role because people are always interested to see a prospect in with a guy fights aggressive and can punch. That's Pantera.
