    John Murray, he's been treading water for years.

    Berto and Lara.

    Its weird but when Bertos name comes up i dont think of him as a champion. I forget that he actually holds the WBC. I guess he really hasnt had a tough fight that he had to win the title with or really any tough defenses other than Collazo.

    Lara i know its early in his career but he is already well established. Im sick of watching him blow out bums in 1-3 days. I wanna see him face more Brewers

    You mean STEP IN? Let's face it, he's been on the wrong side of the ropes for quite a while now.

    John Murray totally needs to step it up and Kell Brook needs to make a statement that he deserves his number 1 contender spot.

    Lucian Bute!

    We need to see him against one of the other top SMW fighters.

    Agreed... if he can't get a Klitschko next fight i would rather a Povetkin fight. Chagaev would be a step up from previous HW opposition but in his last 2 fights he has been beaten up and looked terrible last time out. Obviously the Hep B is having a big effect so i would rather a live opponent like Povetkin

    DeGale is ready to mix it at European and fringe world now so would like to see him step it up.
    Also Kell Brook has been blowing opposition away without really being tested so he needs to step it up too

    Kell brook and John Murray for ****s sake.

    They fight once or twice a year and its never a step up. They will be too ****ing old if they dont hurry up
