    If they were to all fight one another at this present time, I'd still have Ricky Burns coming out top dog.

    I rate Flanagan though and hope he pulls it off in his upcoming title shot. Crolla is another one I hope pulls it out of the bag, I met him after the first Froch Groves fight, along with Burns and the pair of them were sound.. had time for everyone. Obviously with what's happened to crolla over Xmas, what a victory it would be!

    Derry & Coyle are always in good fights.

    Campbell has a big future as well.

    not based on his last few performances, although I hope he turns it round 1st Aug and maybe gets a world title shot again

    And?

    At the time it was easily the weakest division in boxing. The minute Burns had a legitimate contender in Broner he bottled it.

    If Burns can show what he does in the gym on fight night he beat all the LW's IMO, IF?
    Love to see Terry and Anthony win title both really nice lads who both love the sport and work very hard, fingers crossed for both
