Unbeaten Super Bantamweight...

Michael Hunter.

Everytime he fights its explosive, never been a dull moment in one of his fights, i think he is going to excel sooo much this year...

He is one of Britain's best and has the potential to go all the way.

Yeah, I like Hunter. Has a good team around him and the potential to succeed Esham Pickering as the best super-bantamweight in Europe.

Seen him once, looked very tasty. Technically good too.

I do hope Amir Khan turns out to be something special as a pro too. If he gets a medal at this olympics, I think it would be good to see him turn pro before the next olympics. Maybe after 2-3 years. He'd be 21 by then and reaching his physical prime. With or without a gold medal he will be a tremendous prospect and will be very much in demand, provided he does relatively well at this olympics of course

I think he's one of our up and coming hopes of the future, if no one has seen him yet i'll give you details of his next bout ect...

Razor - he needs to keeps busier which I appreciate is difficullt at super-bantam, he certainly isn't ready for Pickering (who I rate as being only slightly behind real world class, despite his unfortunate world title challenge a while ago). Who else is there for him in Britain?

Good point Loynesy, either he steps up to featherweight or he is going to fight south americans all his career...
