    Don't think he'll go much further then where he is at the moment. Couldn't see him getting past Rhodes for a start.

    I like him. He has talent, though can blow hot and cold. I think he's a colourful character, and at least he's got us talking about him. Sort of similar to Naz/Eubank (though I'm not saying anywhere near that scale) in that just as much people watch him and pay attention out of dislike for him, as those who are fans. At least he's not being ignored! So I guess his strategy is working.
    I think Rhodes beats him though.

    rhodes would be a step too far for him right now, maybe another 5-6 fights, but i have a feeling rhodes will be gones before then anyway.

    I just don't think does himself any favours, and was **** against mcdonough

    5-6 fights before Rhode..... NOWAY... Smalls is 29-30 he is at his peak now whereas Rhodes is getting older, i'd say Small needs to fight him in his next three fights!!! Smalls can beat Rhodes with the right game plan, he has the style to give Rhodes alot of problems.... He did stink the venue out in his last fight but i can assure you Small vs Webb is gonna be a real quality fight... 50-50 FIGHT

    I just haven't really heard a satisfactory answer from him over the McDonagh fight. He said that McDonagh came to fight that sort of fight. Well if he's as good as he says he is then he should have been able to get past that. To me it looked more like McDonagh who was trying to push the action anyways.

    He has talent. But I have a sneaky feeling the urban legend that is Prince Yassine, may do him if and when they meet. Rhodes blows hot and cold so difficult one to call.

    I reckon Brian Rose and Prince Arron would both give Small a run for his money.

    He'll go no further than British title level. He's pretty awkward and difficult to beat but he's nowhere near as good as he thinks he is. If he reallyu was going to be top drawer, he'd be banging out the Pryces and McDonaghs of this world with some ease, not struggling with them
