    Fair point Crolla could be above them but a was just thinking Paul had two British title fights Crollas had one!! As for Stephen probs Crolla is ahead of him but how will ya see it if Swifty wins next week?? He has to be above Crolla if he wins!!

    Gemmel everyone in the game knew Morris was shot to pieces and Watson was dead at the weight so it wasn't a big gamble to let Crolla fight them but let's not forget Gallagher himself stated that he didn't want crolla fighting Reese and Limmond because they are to big let's not forget Crolla is the British lightweight champion and as such he should face all comers at that weight now tell me Gallagher isn't protecting his 0 and the only reason he his letting Murray fight Mitchell is because of the boxing public are fed up to the back teeth of him protecting his 0

    tell that to sykes and crolla! morris gave them a great run for there money, shot to pieces?:patsch 1 of the worst comments i have ever heard, crolla was set to face rees but gavin pulled out injured:patsch and i know gallagher doesn't want crolla in with limmond, i agree with some things you say, crolla has no business at lightweight, h should go back down and fight sykes.

    A don't think Morris was shot but probaly not at his best!! But still a good domestic fighter there's no gettin away that night Crolla was awesome he did everything right a think it was a bad move going up to lightweight he can always go back down tho! I hope ant goes far in the game he deserves it but IMO a can't see him goin as far at lightweight than he would at s/feather we will see Wat happens in the near future if he stays at lightweight he needs to fight limmond!!

    Totally agree but limmond needs to start fighting regular apart from morales in the last 3 years he's fought journeyman mainly, maybe win an eliminator to force hattons to make the fight, doesn't look like fatton and gallagher are interested..i bet crolla would fight any british lightweight tho.

    Ye he would his confidence has to be sky high!! Limmond has to be more active and ya can't blame it all on that people have avoided him maybe a few times but he could of done alot more to help himself!! If he ain't got a title by the end of the Yr then a think could be nr to game over for him!! Shame cause a really like him as a boxer!! I don't no why they want to avoid limmond Rees is just as dangerous as limmond!! Its a funny situation to be in a think all the Crolla camp no he should be down a weight but do ya try your luck and see if he can handle it or move down and wait for a title shot which could take for ever!!

    He's very average.

    I'd have at least Murray and Gavin ahead of him (despite the fact Gavin's done very little - its just so obvious he's going to be a lot better than Matthew).

    Maybe Crolla too. If Crolla was faced with an Asikainen type character I'm sure he'd become Euro champ too.

    Macklin has surfed about too many gyms and has never really knuckled down in one spot since the early days...:yep

    I think that he has had his best days now...:yep I hope I am wrong...:yep

    Out of that list tho he's been British champ European champ now fighting for a world title no one in that list had done that! John Murray is still fighting at domestic level!! Macklins fighting at world level!! A think to put him in 4th place would be silly!! IMO out of that list he should defo be at the top!! Murray close second
