Re: best boxer of 2011 ?????
I see Cleverly, Macklin, Brook becoming champions this year with maybe Munroe, DeGale (though I would be surprised). Should be an exciting year domestically and for the Brits in world and euro fights. Maybe even Jamie McDonnell can get a crack!
Re: best boxer of 2011 ?????
You missed out Barker. Not sure what his situation is currently, but he'll probably have an unfulfilled year unless he leaves Meaty Mick.
Can see Brook progressing to a Euro belt, and not getting the big fight he craves in a frustrating year.
DeGale won't get a world title shot yet, maybe next year when the Super Six is over.
Cleverly will become a champion
Groves definitely won't, cos he'll get beat by DeGale (if they actually fight).
I can see more of this interim title bollocks together with meaningless eliminators that don't actually get you a crack at the big time for most of these fighters.

Could be a cracking year 
Re: best boxer of 2011 ?????
Cleverly will be a world champion, think Munroe will get there too against Molitor probably??? Brook might get there if he can challenge a belt apart from WBO belt, feel Mcdonnell could be the Burns of the year and think he may well get a title. Apart from that the only other one is a long shot from Degale??

Im looking forward to seeing if John Simpsons profile and achievements jump a few levels!
Re: best boxers of 2011 ?????
brook, cleverly, very good chance, possibly barker, thats it.
Re: best boxers of 2011 ?????
Gavin, DeGale and Cleverly, thats it.
Brook? Undecided. Brook has talent, yet his opposition has been absymal. I Wonder if he has imporved all that much, to be truthful.
Groves? Likes to have a tear up and has bottle. Has some good skills, but not sure if they are good enough to take him to the top.
Macklin? Nah, his high rating flatters him. He is not good enough.
Barker? He is good enough, just needs activity and someone to really push him forwards.
Brook? Undecided. Brook has talent, yet his opposition has been absymal. I Wonder if he has imporved all that much, to be truthful.
