    Purely speculative. We dont know how different fighters will adjust to their weights, whether they remain at the same weights and what the various weights will look like as other people in the weight move in and out of them. For example, would anyone have ever considered that Gavin Rees could win a title at the weight he did?

    Rank them in terms of potential by all means, in terms of who may or may not win a title - you'd have to be Nostradamus in the current climate!

    Ah, sound! Well, if he becomes a world champ we'll call him British. If not, you can call him Irish ;)

    Hmm, maybe I am thinking of the wrong kid then?! Who am I thinking of? It was at the Liverpool Olympia. Think it was the British senior ABAs? Summer '09? It was on Setanta.

    Confused. Could have sworn it was him. Apologies then!

    Think I'm going senile!
