Yeah, Andre Berto has the potential to be huge. The guy has bricks in both hands and considerable speed. 18 wins with 16 KO's and no losses = keep an eye on this kid.

Hell, wins over Zab Judah and Antonio Margarito make him a legit superstar already, and probably make him the true heir to Felix Trinidad.
yes the Petersons are damn good

what about David Diaz? hes got a big fight comin up soon

I honestly haven't seen much of David Diaz, but I know he's good. Let's see how he does against Morales the legend, and let's see how much left Morales actually has. The fight's gonna be in Chicago, Diaz' hometown, but since Chicago has mostly Mexicans as far as Latinos go, it'll almost certainly be a pro-Morales crowd. I'd like to know how he'll cope with that. Julio and Juan Diaz, though, look like they can be stars.

I love watching the Peterson brothers and I hope soon they will be put in with someone that will actually test them. Andre Ward will run the LHW div soon. Berto is also a very good prospect.

Andre Berto, Rey "boom boom" Bautista, Andy Lee, Mikkel Kessler (he's semi-young), and Joel Julio...look out for them.

This was actually to set up the Taylor/Miranda match. Notice how they had a 10 minute feature on Miranda prior to his fight with Pavlik?

Exactly. In my opinion Ward is a Mayweather prototype with better punching power. His defense could use a little work, but barring anything catastrophic, he should be great.

I'm surprised no one is mentioning Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. He already has 31 wins with 24 by KO, all since his debut in 2003, and he's only 21 year old.

He really seems to be on his fathers fast track to greatness, that's a lot of experience for such a young fighter.

Have you seen him fight????? He hasn't fought anyone with a pulse!!! Seriously, i believe the last 2 fights he fought were fighters moving up from the 130 weight class. JCC Jr will be the next Hector Camacho Jr.

I'm not saying JCC Jr. will not be good, he just hasn't shown anything, don't let the record fool you.

That's not true. Jermaine White and Anthony Shuler are both pretty good up and coming fighters.
