Sometimes he can be premature - Remember when he said Froch was already somewhere around the 8th or 9th ranked Super Middle, way to early.

How's it premature? You think they need to win gold first?

Not at all mate, but their not even Pro yet and his suggesting they are candidtates for Pro P4P listings in the future.
There's a LOOOOONNNG way to go yet before you can start thinking in that way about a fighter. Let them develop as a Pro first before judging them that highly that's all I'm saying.

Kindelan's Cuban and pushing 30 I think... I don't think he'll be turning pro.
I think Bunce's suggestion was that amateurs can be included in P4P lists whether they turn pro or not. I think it's an interesting point.

Fair point.
I don't think however you can directly compare Amatuers and Pro's with regard to P4P listings the two sports have too many differences these days.
I suppose you could on just natrual talent and ability but that would be very difficult as we are not really comparing like with like?
