    I do feel Douglas can be really good.

    I wouldn't write Sam off, he beat Dominic Wade in a shutout and was brutally robbed. Granted Douglas is far better than Wade.

    I was right. Feels like the first time since years. :rasta

    Douglas is really good. I think, he is ready for a guy like Soliman or Macklin.

    I like everything about Douglas. He is very mature for his age, in-and-out of the ring.

    Douglas is legit- I think he's ready for a top 15, top 20 MW next.

    I actually passed out before Keenan Smith vs. Benjamin Whitaker, and woke up just in time for Douglas vs. Sherrington ring walks! :lol:

    Foster & Teah owe me two hours of consciousness. :exmad

    douglas is a blue chip talent...dude is going all the way. unlike quillen, he has pedigree. he can box and he can punch. bring on geale next...douglas is gonna crash the mw party and take out geale like yesterday's trash.

    I don't think Douglas is quite ready just yet for me to favor him over Kid Chocolate at this point, but he certainly does have more upside and seems to be improving (whereas KC has sort of plateaued and is closer to a Tavoris Cloud type, IMO - when matched fairly with a world class opponent his own size in their prime he is reduced to a guy with a powerful home run swing and okay-to-above-average hand speed but lacking in many other important categories. I do think he's a bit more well-rounded and p4p better than Cloud was, but it has become clear enough by now that he's great in the making or even the peer of some of the other top current middleweights)

    Douglas looks good but GGG would hammer him to pieces.

    Well, yeah, but that's GGG. Whom does he not hammer? :lol:

    I don't think anyone is saying throw him in with GGG yet.

    Id have on the Eubank Jnr level at the moment.

    Kid has only just turned 23
