    He represents multiple countries. However, I set specific parameters for this thread. I was pretty liberal with the parameters. I'm sure there are plenty of good fighters that you can name that are within the parameters.

    yeah that sums it up.

    on young prospects it isn't too good at the moment really.

    obviously amir khan and maybe john murray (although i don't really rate either tbh).

    we'll have to see who emerges from this olympic crop.

    exactly, the English dont care about the Welsh, the rivalry is one sided, so really thier is no rivalry, its just Welsh hate.
