    But is Berrio really top level ? , the answer is no he's just a decent chinny banger .

    I remember Juuko in with Floyd Mayweather Junior at the top of PBF's game. As you know PBF is exceptional in terms of skills, timing and ring generalship and my friend Ajose is not dissimilar though he needs to show it at the highest levels which hopefully we will get the opportunity sooner rather than later.

    I am really excited by Hatton versus Castillo. I hope Ricky wins but I have a nagging feeling that Castillo is preparing something special. This could a step up from Micky Ward and Gatti. I can't wait

    Maccarinelli or Harrison if he has anything left.

    Hatton will probably pick up a proper belt soon enough, Malignaggi and Torres are garbage so he'd be my pick

    i didn't realise it was an old one. i kept reading "david haye" and was like...erm he already is a world champion.

    my pick was nicky cook which fell flat on its face (helped by some hefty bodyshots as i recall!)

    Probably Haye with the state of the Heavyweight division.

    I really hope it's not Froch and that Inkin batters him before he gets the chance at a title.

    Order of attempts will probably be Arthur, Lockett, Hatton, Khan, Froch (confirmation), Macca, Haye.

    Out of those I'm actually most confident about Haye. Many of the rest are 50/50!

    There's an interesting market on Betfair:
    Will Amir Khan be a world champion by the end of 2008?
    Yes: 1.73 No 1.81

    It must be noted that their definition of world champion includes WBO and IBO titles but 'no' still seems like a pretty good bet. I can't see Khan fighting Pac, Diaz, Casamayor or Campbell, and even if he does he'd probably get beaten up so it's just a matter of whether the WBO gets vacated or if he fights for the IBO. I don't even know who has the IBO title.

    IBO title is vacant, Willie Limond was making noises about it last I heard.

    I bet they only include IBO because Hatton has one.

    Only if they make boxing a non contact sport.
