Favorite prospects!?!?

[Galaxy]

Theres a pretty decent kiwi fight out off OZ; Junior Talipeau a middleweight with a 11-0(4) record. Was scheduled for 10 rounds in only his 5th fight. From what I've seen of him he's one of our best prospects in awhile!

[CutMeMick]

Well since amat listed EVERY possible prospect I'll just type here:

See amats list. J/K amat....


Heres some of my fav:

Tavoris Cloud - This dudes the truth.
'Vicious' Ortiz
'Chocolatito' Gonzalez
'Terremoto' Chavez
'La Sombra' Solis
'Kid Chocolate' Quillin
'Nightmare' Martirosyan
'Machine Gun' Jones
'Canelo' Alvarez
Devon 'Alexander The Great'
Khan
Sammy DiPace
'The Truth' Teron
Antonio De Marco
Jorge Paez Jr.
Yohnny Perez
Michael Marrone
Grzegorz Proksa
Brandon Rios

That's that 17 year old welterweight huh?

That's him...
He still has some work to do but looks good so far.
I'd like to see him fight someone who's know for durability to see how well he handles a long distance fighter.

If this had been 2 months ago, everyone would have been saying Andy Lee. Now he's left with only Lyle sticking up for him Just an observation really, but I find it funny how we (fans) really do go for hype and what other people says once in a while.

You speak the truth....

Check this post out, I put it up after the Vera loss....

Lees got talent and he's shown it in the ring. Even tonight when he lost he showed that he has tools. I can def. see Lee coming back from this.
Guess my point is that I wouldn't call this 'Exposure' cause I think Lee just had a bad night. If you check one of my posts from today I just posted that I thought Lee would loose to someone who moved well and Vera did. Lee couldn't find him but Vera did...
Let's not forget how many fighters have lost early in their careers and have bounced back to become champions and even ATG.
Hopkins, Alexis, The Marquez Bros., Carlos De Leon etc. etc. the list is endless.

Argenis Mendez is one I forgot. He's one to watch for without a doubt, trained by Floyd Sr. with power in both hands and good boxing ability.

A few European based prospects who havent been mentioned yet:

Vitali Tajbert
Gennady Golovkin

I never saw Lee before the Vera fight and was not impressed to say the least. Although it is a bit ridiculous how coming you have to have a perfect record basically.

Lot's of fighters lose early in their careers and some in devistating fashion and they pick themselves up they get back to work and they achieve more than anyone thought possible.

When Wlad was beaten by Sanders and Brewster I was still in his corner and now he's THE champion once again which no one thought was possible.

I'm sticking with Lee because he's a southpaw, he's got quick hands, he's young, and he can obviously take a decent punch...he's got heart and he has a great trainer. It's obvious he's going to be back....just my opinion though.


Manny Steward fighters in general usually lose at least once before making it big...look at Lennox Lewis and Gerald McClellan and Wladimir Klitschko....they all came back to do extremely well

[amat]

Diego Magdeleno
Keith Thurman
Danny Garcia
Hylon Williams
Edwin Rodriguez
Danny Jacobs
Karl Dargan


Those are some that I missed that have just turned pro recently. All very good with styles built for the pros especially Dargan and Garcia. Hylon I haven't seen as a pro yet, was hoping I could catch it somewhere it was on the Calzaghe-Hopkins undercard. He upset a lot of people turning pro, they had high hopes for him did USA boxing. As bad of a wrap as USA boxing gets, it is turning out some fine prospects.

Yeah I think Garcia is going to be showcased on the DLH/ Forbes broadcast

[Violent Demise]

Adrian Hernandez I think is an excellent prospect. He's 13-0. And already holds a win over Rodel Mayol
