Tough on Ward as he was in pole position for the last year. Surprisingly I can't see a lot of qualifiers from this lot, Edwards and Maxwell the best hopes.

McCracken has been bold in his selections and only time will tell if he is right.I suspect he is.He is a great judge of boxers.
However the draw is crucial.
