    Frampton is the best fighter without a world belt at the moment.

    Kelly Brook is decent and I love watching him but can't eee him beating the current champs.

    George groves can beat Froch in a rematch.

    Disagree

    I have grave doubts that Kal Yafai is world class or will be world class

    Winning a world title doesn't make you world class.

    Price has no chance of winning a world title unless he gets it gift wrapped like Murry is.

    Selby
    Frampton
    Fury
    Callum Smith
    Paul Butler
    Groves

    Thats an interesting one.In his first few fights he looked extremely promising,and Id have said he'd have as much success as Ogogo.Lately he seems to have gone back a bit,struggled where he shouldn't.How much is due to his injury?

    Frampton, Brook, Billy Joe Saunders and Lee Selby have the quality to prevail at world level. Joshua and Callam Smith as well if they are developed right

    Billy Joe is talented, but the lack of power and stamina worry me. He'd need to be matched carefully to get one. Same with Gavin... all the talent, but he's still a weight above where he should be for me.
    Butler, Calum Smith, Frampton and Groves all look good shouts. Heavyweights is anyone's guess after the Klitschko's are gone. Joshua, Chisora, Fury and even Price could all get there as there's likely to be a bit of a title merry-go-round for a few years. No one really stands out from all the contenders in that division.

    Butler nah, was dropped by Butcher.
    Yafai should.
    Groves will.
    Selby might.
    DeGale could.
    Frampton will.
    Tommy Coyle could.
    Give Brook a chance if he moves up to LM.

    Once elder Klitschko becomes Tsar or whatever, younger bro will wind down a belt at a time, then pootle off to join him, leaving room for Fury and Chisora to fight for a piece of the pie. Shuddering thought, two Fury's as champs after the two Klitschkos !!!!
    British heavies well placed though for next few years at least.
