    Try and call these potential match ups. Who wins and how?

    Quigg vs Frampton - 2 undefeated prospects, now with signature wins, but who wins this one?


    Cleverly vs Bellew 2 - Fought a close fight, which I felt could have been a draw, how does a rematch go?

    DeGale vs Groves 2 - I thought Groves won a close fight, but what happens now? DeGale looks improved?

    Price vs Fury - Price seems to be getting the hype but Fury has fought at a far higher level in my opinion. Who wins this battle of giants?

    Cleverly vs Maccarinelli - Might sound a bit odd, but hear me out. Enzo although not taking shots well, still punches very hard and was in the same gym as Cleverly. I think Enzo broke Cleverlys nose in the gym and may have a Nathan nervous of his power

    Who do you have and how?

    Quigg- Very very close but i think he just sneaks out a razor thin decision

    Cleverly beats bellew again close decision as of last time.

    Groves beats degale UD easier than before

    Price KOs fury mid rounds from a left straight right combo ala Lewis-Rachman

    Cleverly wins wide decision on big mac. Lots of punches and too higher work rate.

    Quigg (closest out of all of them)
    Bellew (Clev is going backwards)
    Groves (neither of them have improved)
    Price (Fury is to open and will get chinned)
    Clev (Enzo has no chin)

    Frampton very close UD
    Bellew UD
    Groves UD
    Price/Fury could go either way but I fancy Price to land the big shot first and win via KO
    Clev batters enzo

    Cleverly still has his "0" and world title.

    And before you say Bellew was "robbed", the fight was in his back yard.

    Agree with all of that, except maybe Clev to stop Enzo at some point.

    I know lad, but clev was Franks golden goose, was close like but cant realistically see how you can score it for clev. Even the welsh boys am mates with thought Bellew had won it.

    Surprised people are picking Clev over Bellew in a rematch, he has improved a lot and I think he'd win if they fought again.

    Bellew edged the first with a broken hand and has improved significantly since then IMO, whereas clev's been fighting nobodies. Bellew had only just gone back the rotunda when they first fought and is improving every day since being back.

    I remember Bellew dominating him in the first half of the fight then gassing and giving rounds away in the second half of the fight.

    Now he has more experience at a higher level, I doubt he'd do that again and I think he'd win relatively comfortably on points. 9 rounds to 3ish region.

    yeh agree with tha. Clev is a talented kid but hes going nowhere at the minute, whereas Tony's constantly improving.

    Cleverly has fought some embarassing opposition since the fight with Bellew (I thought it was a draw). He's irrelevant now until he starts fighting top ranked fighters. Being on boxnation is not doing him any favours.

    Frampton
    Bellew
    Groves
    Price
    Cleverly

    would take the fights. Frampton vs Quigg is a hard fight to call at this stage though.

    Razor tight decision, like the last one close UD/SD either way
    Price KO early
    Clev stoppage, no chin left in Mac
