    To me once a fighter gets a title he's no longer a prospect.

      True. But they are all under 25, with the exception of Solis, who has only been boxing professionally for 2 years anyway.

        No offense but this list really is horrible. Amir Khan has fought nobody and is tops on the list, but Bradley and Lopez are both champs with big name wins in their last fight and they are 3 and 10???

          Just because a fighter is young doesn't make him a prospect, Valero, Lopez, Bradley and Berto are all titlists.

          And I think Gamboa is the best prospect in boxing right now.

              true. but being british and from manchester (near bolton), i would say amir khan is the most promising. Just needs to get rid of Frank Warren and be tested more... Bradley and Lopez are still young and green, which is why i have out them up...

              what would your list look like?

                  Tavoris Cloud just missed out, because his division is full of legends that will beat him if he goes for a world title
