    obviously it wouldn't happen (i doubt even George thinks he'd stand a chance against Ward), but if he did, he would have one of the best 20 fight records for decades.

    lets not get ahead of ourselves though. Groves isn't ready for world class yet. If he did manage to win the belt from Stieglitz, he would be in a very similar position to Cleverly - a target in a division where he is not ready for the elite. Thus would follow a string of sub par defences: one of them against Anderson, and another against Degale. Don't blame Groves for taking the fight, but don't be surprised if we see him in some unpalatable fights over the next 36 months.

    I think Light-Heavy is in transition, alot of fighters coming and going, Hopkins despite past speculations is really there for the taking...not much left..Dawson I reckon beats him.

    I think Cleverly has developed that much, he still makes the same mistakes, look at Groves...he stepped up a level with Degale, and became even better when he took on Smith...if he keeps improving he will be an elite operator.

    Chisora developed hugely in 8 months, got better and better despite losses.

    Clevery is stagnant at the moment, and one thing going for him is his 0.

    Depends how much they weighed and how tall they were when he beat them.

    "Recently", De La Hoyas is pretty impressive.

    I think the first 4 results are very possible (although I don't agree with the methods) I can see him beating Stieglitz & Anderson, Abraham yeah it's likely as is Froch just don't see him ever beating Ward or Dirrell.
