    Must say it's refreshing to see the activity of our prospects this year.

    Many of them getting regular fights, progressing onto longer fights as well which is great.

    Well done to the Promoters who are keeping there lads active, 2013 could be a extremely interesting year on domestic scene i say :yep.

    ye real big difference to the picture one or two years ago, who is promoting Selby? I still think he might be the pick of the current crop, along with BJS and maybe Yafai

    Wazza has a few more options on Selby apparently. I think its no coincidence that the prospects that are getting regular fights are the ones who have come out of the gb process. If you get in the elite squad or close to it then you are seriously on a fast track, which is how it should be.

    Fisheyes i think sadly with Sanigar managing him, Jamie.

    My only fear is they get to title level then get less activity, the promoters have set a benchmark. Keep it going now :deal.

    America seems to be on the decline, nobody is really replacing the greats who are starting to age. UK could capitalize on this in the coming years, having more world champions than ever before. Still taking it seriously here, there is a serious lack of talent coming through in America, it used to be a conveyer belt.....it's slowing down, if not coming to a halt.

    i thought that might be the case with him being with the sanigars :-( i dnot have a problem with fwank but can see Selby being left out of his picture, hes not unbeaten and can see Fwank not realising what a talent he has on his hands. he promotes 3 or 4 fighters at a time, the rest he forgets about.

    i think thats a real problem for the game as a global sport if america loses interest. i think the worry about people switching to mma over there never materialised, it seems its got its own niche which has plateau'd, so why have people stopped boxing? if america loses interest where will the big money come from if theres no big vegas/new york/la bills?

    Gotta say as well, I think a lot of the prospects can go over to Germany and Russia and pick themselves up some belts of most of those pampered pretenders.

    But we all know, you don't just fight one fight in those countries, you have to fight two.
