    He'll be 1 of those fighters that only get truly appreciated after they have retired, then you'll get guys like Adam Smith etc talking on TV about how "we need more fighters like him" without a hint of irony over the fact he was largely ignored by the main stream media at his peak.

    unless he gets a sky deal he will only be known by boxing fans and that will be a real shame and disservice to a warrior

    He'll be remembered as The Super 6 champion or that bloke who got splattered by Andre Ward.

    Good question. Atm definitely behind but if he beats Johnson and Ward then he closes the gap somewhat. If he then beats the winner of Bute v Kessler he surpasses Clazaghe imho.

    Should he then go on and clear out LHW he is coming close to the best British fighter ever.

    If he beats ward AND johnson then he surpasses joe. How that can be even argued i don't know!

    His pascal win is great as well, seeing as pascal beat dawson AND hopkins (ok, the latter is dfeeo up for debate, but still).
