    Send them in 1 by 1. Send in your most iron chinned 147s and 160s to do the trick. Bob Foster will be waiting in the boxing ring to greet them.

    I'd give Mickey Walker a shot, especially at 168.

    Griffith deserves a mention. Crawford says that he walks around at 180 healthily. He's got a shot imo. Janibek just got hospitalised for dehydration so is apparently a bigger MW than was first thought. GGG would be pretty undersized but he's got the skills to pull it off. B-Hop is usually a safe bet. Gavilan is slick and crafty enough to beat Foster too I reckon.

    How about SRR on the night he fought Maxim? (just not actually on that night...).

    Here's Burley handily outpointing a big, hard-hitting LHW contender:

    Why Langford can't beat him?
    I'll pick Walker and Greb over him on a good night.

    That might be the best pick so far.
