Thanks amigo. It's an ongoing project, so I will be updating it frequently. Adding new names and probably removing some names as they get more established (or get exposed as unable to make the transition between am & pro).

Sorry, I did not see the 12 month classifier. Just read amateur standouts.

No problem...as the list grows there will be some listed who turned pro over 12 months ago, so we wont quibble over a few months but to keep this functional we've got to keep it fairly recent. Otherwise there will be too many guys listed for this thread to even be usable.

The main reason I started this topic was to elevate the level of conversation when it comes to the MANY amateur stars who are now flooding the pro ranks in the post-Olympic deluge!!

Feel free to point out your personal favorites most likely to rocket into title contention. Since I linked each fighters name its easy to check to see whose on the fast track as a pro.

http://boxrec.com/media/index.php/Mikhail_Aloyan is probably on the fastest track with a win in his 4th pro bout over 15-0-2 Alex Espinosa. At age 29, Aloyan NEEDS to be on the fast track since he's one of the older guys on the list.

http://boxrec.com/media/index.php/Josh_Kelly takes a HUGE step up in his 6th pro bout on 3/31 vs former world title challenger Carlos Molina.

aloyan was very good amateur but 2 splits in the last 2 fghts. his limit may be reached soon.

molna seen better days but a really good step up for josh. Kelly should win wide. a stoppage would be really nice.

A Kelly stoppage would be phenomenal because Molina has NEVER been stopped before!! I dont count that ridiculous DQ loss to Kirkland where Carlos was not even badly hurt.
