    I think it will be close for about 5 rounds and then Selby's accuracy will tell and land the more telling shots, I think it will go 12 rounds though Selby winning 116-112. If warrington could bang I would give him a bigger chance but don't see him being able to hurt Selby to much. Both are great talents imo

    Selby comfortable points win, not a knock on Warrington though I just think Selby is or could be elite level good.

    Easy nights work for Selby. Even in Leeds

    Selby's a top 3 FW for me behind Walters and Loma. He'd be all wrong for Josh, he'd box his head off. It'll be made as there's too much money for it not to be, but it'll just showcase how far ahead Selby is.

    I really like them both but I really rate Selby. I think it would be a good fight with an amazing atmosphere.

    Like people have said above, I believe Warrington's lack of power would be the glaring difference.

    Selby wins.

    close fight to start with them taking rounds of each other Lee slickness gettin thro and Josh landing purely down ot his volume. by round 5 Selby will realise Josh's punches aint gonna damage him then will start sitting down on his and round by round Josh's workrate drops as he gets tagged harder and harder. Second half of the fight will see Lee take control maybe even the ref stops the fight.

    Spot on, I think Warrington would hold his own over the first 4 - 5 rounds but Selby would begin to start picking him off, landing cleaner shots and slowing him down as the fight wore on.

    I'd be hoping Warrington pulled it off though - just can't see it.

    the only real chance Warrington has is if Selby is struggling more than usual on the scales. Warrington is good but just doesnt hit hard enough. Warrington looks like the puppet from Saw (someone get him a trike) :D

    Warrington doesn't have much power, but neither does Selby.

    If they do fight, it would be a pure chess match.
