    Flanagan's nearly two years younger than Campbell! Strange to read how Campbell has endless room for improvement and Flanagan hasn't. Actually thought Campbell made hard work of Tommy Coyle who really was there for the taking. Flanagan's still being slept on, would love if Fast Car had the guts to put one of his fighters in with him. :deal

    I wasnt saying anyway was disputing it mate, I am just stating that Flannegan turned pro very young so his progression would naturally be slower then Luke's who has turned pro more mature and with a bigger amateur pedigree.

    I'm sorry, but Mitchell does not beat him.

    Would fancy Campbell's chances but would pick Flanagan to beat Crolla and Mitchell

    Right now:

    Flanagan Stops Mitchell comfortably, way too big for him
    Flanagan Bullies Campbell, maybe stops him late, Campbell maybe has a chance in the future
    Flanagan Dominates Mattews, for 12 brutal rounds
    Flanagan Outworks Crolla, in a great FOTY contender,

    He's beat Katsidis which is above English level imo and he was beating Derry Matthews easily.

    Only one who I think beats him right now is Campbell.

    Lets all calm down abit lol
    flanagan had a very good win last night. I rate him highly. But people talking about him like hes a monster hes not a big puncher hes had 12 stoppages in 29 fights 4 of those stoppages were injurys or dqs. Nate campbell injured. Gethin injured. Omerond dq and zepeda injured.

    How would he stop mitchell comfotable?
    Tell me how he bullies campbell? Campbell is just as big as him and has better footwork

    Burns had a far worse KO ratio He stopped Mitchell comfortably, Flanagan is HUGE in comparison to Mitchell Flanagan is a big strong Lightweight Mitchell is a Tiny Lightweight Flanagan throws FAR too many accurate bullying punches for Mitchell and would stop him early and I like Mitchell.

    Campbell RIGHT NOW (not in a year or so) is slightly too green and soft as a professional I think he can be one of the great British boxers in time to come but throwing him in with Flanagan NOW, which is what I was implying to, he would be out muscled out worked and may not make it into the later rounds.

    Mitchell in my opinion, wouldn't back anyone else right now though, very impressed with him last night after not being all that impressed in the past, could turn out to be a very fine fighter.
