    yeah was struggling for counterpunchers, suppose Afolabi could come under the category aswell, but really need to see more of him. saw enough defensively against enzo to get my nod in that department. him and napa have similar defensive styles, but ola has done it against a better standard of fighter.

    Nobody gets hit by Froch's uppercut unless they are on their last legs. You can see that a mile away, its coming from a different post code. He couldn't even hit the journalist in sparring with that monstrosity :rofl

    Ola is a good choice for defence indeed. I thought Napa was the only real contender for that, forgot completely about Ola. I still slightly prefer Napa's, Ola seemed to take a lot of half-shots. If Napa focuses entirely on defence he's so compact its near impossible to hit him in his shell. He only gets hit because he's a midget and he has to reach for his opponents.

    Frankie Gavin picks his shots really well, not sure where to put him though.

    I'm still not sold on Murray at all - he is basically a C-level version of Ricky Hatton, inferior in all departments pretty much. All his best wins are over guys that have already been thrashed by either Khan or Thaxton - in the case of Lawton, both.

    I think Darni will argue that Khan has become Antonio Margarito's equal on the basis of him not taking a **** before the weigh in.
