    It's such a weak division in Britain, who else is there, I think there's only Danny Price who 'potentially' could get to world level, all the others don't seem good enough.

    I'd keep an eye on Stephen Simmons, think he's one that could get himself up to European level. Not sure how far he can go after that, but he has a good dig on him and good amateur pedigree so who knows.

    Simon Vallily also looks promising, only one pro fight though.

    No

    Vallily, Simmons, Jumah all have the potential to get to world level imo.

    He's in against Conquest in Oct isn't he? Tony Conquest is out next month too after a bad run with various injuries since Dawson beat him.

    I think Price is the best prospect yes
    Simmons is a confident , tough guy , probably got a solid chin and punches hard.. will get to european level. Vahilly looked quite good on his debut but hasn't fought since 5 months on....
    obviously the british champion Dickinson as well? boring to watch but a decent fighter , how far dyou think he'll go?
    Jumah look poor. Dawson and Askin deserve a mention at domestic level.

    But the best of the lot will be ****** Baister from the GB squad, when he finally turns pro! :)

    Not just a weak division in Britain. I think it is in the world. From lightweight onwards, every division is good bar this.

    Valilly must of been mad signing for wank given that he's a) not getting his lesser established fighters fights and b) He's not paying them when they do get fights.
