    Default Pick your Prospect

    Fairly new on here so not sure if this has been done before- delete this thread if it has... but...

    thought it would be interesting if everyone picked a prospect for the future...

    the criteria
    -must have under 10 pro fights
    -can not hold a title
    -you must believe the fighter will one day win a world title

    just a bit of fun to see what names come up, preferable stay away from the most well known, find some one a bit different, although this isn't vital, and try not to repeat a name some one else has already picked!

    Mine is going to be: MATT KOROBOV

    I was thinking maybe Lara too, he's a bit lost in the shuffle with the other Cubans but he's sound.

    I don't know, I have brain freeze, can't think of anybody. I'll go Karl Dargan, I've heard some good things and the very small amount I've seen of him looked pretty good. That's highly speculative, I think he's had only like three fights.

    The under 10 fights qualification makes it difficult. I wanted to say Jacobs, but he's had 16 fights so far. I really think he'll be a belt holder some day.

    He was the first guy I thought of as well, he really looks like he's got it all. Met him in Vegas after the Hatton-Pacquiao fight & he was a really cool guy, had a talk about boxing with him. Both me & my chick thought he was a safe enough guy that I would pay to see him fight

    Some good picks.

    Rico Ramos is a good one to keep an eye out for, tons of talent.

    Marvin Sonsona is like my 6th or 7th pick. He's got great power. He's a southpaw version Nonito Donaire.

    No doubt.But I'd put him at a top contender.I think once he gets the key oppurtunity.....he'll going to breakthrough in a big way.Sending someone home beltless

    Korobov is getting a major push.Early on but looks to have the goods. Holmcall nailed it with Canelo Alvarez.Wish we could see more of him.

    I'm going to roll with a local light heavyweight named...

    Mark "TNT" Tucker.

    When I say local I mean local. We both shop at the same Wal-Mart.

    He just makes the cut with nine fights. He just won a MD against Ross Thompson. Thompson went the distance with Pavlik and Lacy and Oba Carr.

    Mark Tucker

    Actually it was a SD win for Tucker.

    And although this guy doesn't exactly fit the requirements I want to mention Tim Coleman.

    Many of you saw him fight De La Rosa on Shobox last year. He lost a UD but I think highly of this guy. He fights out of Baltimore, Maryland.

    Tim Coleman

    Curtis Stevens is even further from the topic range but someone I like as well. He also lost a UD recently. His was to Andre Dirrell. Dirrell ran most of the fight I might add.
