    Howard Eastman, Brian Magee, Jamie Moore, Ryan Rhodes, Dean Francis, Bradley Pryce ( who was looking really good when he was commonwealth champ) Rendall Munroe, Michael Jennings, Carl Johanesson,

    you'd have thought Matthew Macklin, Kevin Mitchell AND John Murray would have become world champs but they still have time.

    Jamie Moore - he was a cracking fighter in his prime , a proper fighting man who never backed down or ducked anyone. It's unbelievable he never got the chance to prove himself on the biggest stage because I think he could have won a world title had he been better managed/promoted and had his weight problems not caught up with him..

    It looks like Macklin isn't gonna win a world title which is a shame as he clearly deserved to beat Sturm.

    Martin Murray still hasn't won a world title don't forget, but I think he'll will win one he's too good not to.

    Munroe is a good shout twice beat the current IBF champ none of the last 3 you mentioned are even close to world class.

    Bloody hell, I've only just realised that.

    His CV looks better in retrospective.

    Shows the multi belt system is just plain stupid.

    Ajose Olusegun clearly. I liked Jamie Moore a lot and frankly I don't think anyone does not like the popular Mancunian. I expected him to fight for a world title though was not sure if he would win.

    For a start,how is Degale not British?There isn't even an argument there.I think Ryan is a good call.Macklin has been a good tough fighter.But he has never beaten a world class middleweight.Hes had 3 shots,and IMO if he got a 4th,against Quillin,who's underrated on here,he'd lose.Even in Britain.

    Ajose put on a great performance against Matthysse but as we seen from the Hank Lundy fight he's not quite good enough to mix it with world level.

    Still a quality fighter though.
