I like Berto and Guzman to carry on winning for a while, some of the others have yet to truly fight a world class opponent.

Dunno about Berto, the Collazo fight could have gone either way and welterweight is still fairly loaded. Though not as much as about a year ago.

Tavoris Cloud looks a bit special to me, think he could beat anyone he connects with.

Abraham has a decent chance of beating Pavlik if them two finally get it on. Don't see anyone beating Dawson for a while unless Calzaghe decides to unretire and take the challenge.

Dirrell is a great prospect, but he seems a bit scatty, like he could throw away a victory. I think on his day he's one of the best super middleweights out there.

Arthur Abraham should keep his for quite a while longer, provided he sticks to middleweight / super middleweight. John Duddy will lose when he faces Kelly Pavlik.

I think Duddy will lose 2 Pavlik if it happens

Povetkin will lose when he starts fighting World Class HW

Prescott will lose wen he fights a clever boxer with a good chin

What are you basing that on? The 50 seconds you've seen of him?

Some of us have two more fights than that (Abrill & Toledo).

Rather than just question that, why don't you just tell us all how far you think Rogan will go anyway?

But, in answer to your question, I just picked out guys that had had at least around 15 or more fights and/or were listed in the World Top 10 in their respective divisions.

Rogan has had 12 fights and is listed as 16th currently. :box:

I saw you had listed Kevin Johnson and presumed you were going with guys on the 1st page of the rankings :)

Yeah Rogan isn't going past European title level but he's a great story
