    Khalid is rated no 6 in ratings by ring and defends his WBA 115 title in
    Birmingham May 13 against Japan Suguru Muaranaka in a fight he is
    expected to win. This kid became first boxer to win world title in over
    100 yrs from Birmingham. This divison has alot of depth and Yafai
    is in the thick of things. AJ is not the only British world champion
    to watch out for.

    I'm a believer now, I wasn't for a while but he has convinced me.

    I like him, rate him and believe he will go on to do very big things.

    The divisions he is active in are loaded with telnet and the pay isn't great. But he is far better to watch than "superstar" plodders like AJ.

    I like yafai, but no money in that division both world scene and domestically. Think he would struggle with the top 3-4 in the division. Needs to go up to bantamweight, likes of Haskins, Burnett, butler, tete, McDonnell etc loads of fights for him there especially with it being 3lbs difference.
