Allen Green
Jeff Lacy
Andre Dirrell
Andre Ward
sadly I think probably Manfredo... There arent many proven American Supermids that come to mind. Dirrell did great against Hanshaw but Hanshaw isnt that good imo.

Quillin has a chance to be the best super middleweight in the world, not just the United States IMO.

quillin is still too green imo to be a solid top5, but his skill, timing , and power make him a very veyr promising prospect.

I think green has to be on top for power and experience, he could beat any American Supermiddleweight, and has a chance against top one in the world too.

dirrell will probably end up proving hes better than green (with the skills dirrell has, wouldnt be a suprise)

Lacy for expereince and lack of a deep division for super middles in usa.

ward has been SLOWLY getting up the ranks, he still has the potential, but imo he might have a weak chin. The hand speed is impressive though.


After that, there is a good mix of average or green fighters, Quillin imo is the most promising of them.
