    gavin, although i know amateur pedigree does not always guarantee pro success, he has looked most comfortable at pro level, and is the person right now you would be happiest out of the olyimpians to put into at least and english title fight straight away.
    Plus his skill level is exeptional

    cleverly is already making huge strides and for a part time boxer is doing very well, when he finishes his degree and concerntrates 100% on his boxing, i'm certain he will go on to do great in the light-heavyweight division

    Gavin probably Groves could do well

    I think Groves. He looks like he has something a little bit special if you ask me.

    Exciting bunch though!!!

    I think all 6 boxers could go onto win World titles, but if pushed I'd choose Kel Brook closely followed by Cleverley and Groves

    Too early to tell for most of these, but out of them all I think Gavin looks like he has the potential to be genuine world class. The rest could probably win a title of sorts. I'd rate Groves, Bellew and Clev in the next bracket.

    Gavin, Bellew, Groves, and Cleverley could all realistically go onto world honours. I like Brook but I think the welter division will be really really hard for him to break into. Personally I don't see DeGale getting into the mix on the world scene either

    Its a funny old game. Not long back most people (including me) were backing BJ Saunders for pro success. But after a couple of fights you could clearly see he was well overweight and not dedicated. Now he does not even make this poll.

    I reckon Brook is made for the pro ranks. Gavin will run him close in terms of success. DeGale will be found out soon unless he changes trainers soon. JMcD will not take him anywhere.

    Bellew-his respect for the sweet science might grow a very good technician. The power helps as well.

    Frankie Gavin is the best out of the lost though, technically IMO
