    selkirk aint a bad shout, if only warren got him the fights. i read an interview somewhere with the head coach from Ronda and he was saying selkirk is the most talented fighter he's produced

    My personal shout, frank seems to be investing most of his time on burns,degale,cleverly and brook. He needs to focus on Gavin because imho he has more talent than any of them. A top fighter, he can beat daws tomorrow if he wants. At light welter (his last fight and division he seems to be campaigning at) he can beat everybody at domestic level, in 18 months a fight between him and mccloskey could be a massive fight. After that world honours, as closk certainly isnt a slouch.

    he has no reason to make it up, it was an interview on the coach, not 1 trying to big up' selkirk. when asked who was the most talented kid he trained he said selkirk. bearing in mind bellew and the smiths are amounst the amateurs who came out of the gym

    If Billy-Joe Saunders keeps injury free and keeps the weight down I reckon he'll be talked about far much more as a serious prospect. Was pretty happy with what I saw in his last fight, lets hope its the start of some big things from him.

    I like the look of Rhys Roberts but 2011 probably isn't the year for him to break out. Massively tough domestic division for him to work his way through, give him another year or so to let his body develop and his power to hopefully grow and he should be ready for bigger things by the end of next year.

    Selkirk has a tough old night with O'Meara last time out, got a bit of work to do IMO.

    It's going to be James De Gale but if Warren moves Gavin along it will be him. Gavin could beat most at 140 already imo.

    Its gotta be Degale for me.

    He's already being drawing comparisons with Gerald McClellan and Joe Calzaghe.:hey

    Hopefully frankie gavin would like to see FW take similar risks with him as he has degale cos as most ppl agree he has the talent to step up quickly.

    I'd like to see Stephen smith do well also Liam walsh too.

    Ive liked him for a while now, but the comparisons are so far off the mark its untrue. One good performance against a 1-dimesional pressure fighter and he's the new g-man. He would do well to lace their gloves. He is a good well rounded fighter who is blitzing his way through his fights. Lets get this right tho, Smith was his only live opponent and he hasnt done much of not in his career tbf. A fighter with anderson would be much welcomed :good

    Also I think DeGale beats Groves at the moment and cant ever see that changing whilst Groves has the defence of Carl Froch minus the chin.

    They are eyeing up Kiko Martinez already. Frampton means business.
