i know he isn't really "upcoming" anymore, as he has beaten a relatively well-known fighter in Jeff Curran. but, this guy is my pick to be the guy to take Miguel Torres' belt. he trains out here in Sacramento at Urijah's gym and word is, he takes Urijah to school whenever they spar. i'm planning on joining the gym within the next month or so (financial issues, the gym is $150 a month for full membership!), so i'll be able to tell you firsthand if that is true. what do you guys think about the kid? i watched him fight at Dream 2 i think it was? and i fell in love. he looked amazing.

This category pertains to fighters pretty much unknown, not pretty well known, and He wouldn't beat Torres, Bowles or Aldo at BW have the best shot

I suppose you could consider him a prospect but he's already in the big show for little guys. when i'm thinking prospect I"m thinking of a guy who hasn't made it in one of the big shows yet.

I prolly wouldn't consider him up and coming either but he certainly isn't a household name and it's good to educate people. Aside from that....I love to watch him fight.

Wouldn't beat Torres? Oh really? (as if anyone saw that fight coming right?)

I still think he'd be better served at 125.
