    And that will prove Gary Sykes is the best fighter in the world :yep

    Sykes > Crolla > Morales > Pacquiao

    (Prizefighter's a load of bollocks so the Buckland loss doesn't count :D)

    ease my mind Dan. Give some reasons for that.

    I was at Morales last fight. He has plenty left even if it was agaisnt an under motivated Marcos Maidana.

    I think Maidana is pretty poor at the best of times to be honest. He looked out of shape and not necessarily undermotivated I just genuinely think he thought he would win that fight at a canter to be honest and when it didn't turn out like that he couldn't muster up something different.

    I actually think the fight being at the weight will suit Crolla moreso than Morales too. Crolla has a very big frame for someone his weight and I still think he'll come in effective at the weight, whereas we all know Morales is purely at the weight because of his age and inabilty to shift the punds.

    Morales is still class and there's a great chance that he could just outbox Crolla and force a stoppage later on, but IMO I think Crolla is so strong he'll end up taking the fight out of Morales.

    Crolla to look sharp early on, beating Morales to the punch and in the end just pure and simply walking him down and finishing him around 9.

    Look at the success Maidana was having before he gassed. Crolla wont gas :good
    Look at the success Limmond had against Morales - I believe Crolla to be better than Limmond :good

    That's MY opinion anyway :good

    Fair points. As I said that wasn't the best of Maidana although I think he is a good fighter at his best unlike yourself.

    It is the Limmond fight that I look at to be honest. and I don't think theres much to say Crolla is better than Limmond he has just been given the opportunites.

    I get what your saying about the frame...but Crollas own trainer has voiced concerns about him fighting Nigel Wright and Willie Limmond. I think Crolla has the ability to fight at world level at 130lbs but in this fight is just see him getting beaten up real bad and it might effect his career on the long run.

    The Hattons make to many rash decisions at times.
