    Jamie is a great shout however I see him getting a lot more credit after last night. Bellew is underrated too but I think that comes more from the fat people dislike him rather than a judgement of his talent and ability.

    I think Jamie McD though maybe not now. Would love him to move up in weight, just think him Quigg Frampton, Galahad all in same division. Not say ing he is as good as them at that weight, but he has a better win than any of them and has had the more successful career so far.

    Would say McDonnell also for me a underrated fighter is someone who wins and doesn't get the recognition for it.

    It is the second time McDonnell has been expected to lose and beaten the favourite this win will get him the praise he should of for beating the young Mexican ko artist Julio Ceja.Many hardcore fans on here would not of seen the fight,great action.

    Nick Blackwell - seen by so many as a run of the mill fighter - that will change when he gets a very wide win over the most over hyped fighter in the country, john Ryder.

    I used to rate him very highly but he has only peformed well once since the Blackledge win and that was against Noe Gonzales, so I think he just lacks consistency.

    Very decent shout, however I am not sure Ryder is all that hyped to be honest.

    Blackwell is a good shout agree with beachie no way has Ryder been over hyped looking forward to the fight.

    Real trade fight and I edge towards Ryder in a very tight contest.

    If we're just going by the gap of ratedness I'd have to go for Amir Khan or Paul Smith.. most prospects and contenders have their share of fans already.
