    Seriously I think we will have a pretty competitive domestic scene with a few Euro champs and the odd WBO beltholders but maybe someone will step up to the top level in time.
    It's hard to say anyway but it was hardly a shock that Khan was exposed as almost everyone on here expected it eventually.

    I agree but he needs to sort out his defence.

    I like Froch but judging by his slow career progression so far it's hard to place too much faith in him.

    There is no guarantee that he can cut it at the top level either.

    The Cobra does look like one of our best hopes though.

    I think Kenny Anderson and Tony Bellew could do very well.

    What about Craig McEwan 11-0 (7) training with Freddie Roach and on GBP cards.

    I haven't seen him fight but heard a few good things about him.
