Good list that, I'd say Brook-Khan-Gavin is a series of 50-50 fights, Frampton-Quigg is 50-50, but both handle Galahad comfortably. DeGale-Groves, as seen in the past is a 50-50 fight and Butler-Yafai has the potential to be a cracker, but Fielding smashes Buglioni up, but in turn both are beaten by Paul Smith, Buglioni inside the distance. Price would be beaten by both Fury and Chisora right now, Chisora would just grind him down and Fury would take him later into the fight and stop him. Saunders would batter Eubank, if he didn't get him out in the first 2 rounds, then a resounding points win. Ryder could be too clever for Etches, but a come forward fighter like him can be vulnerable against a puncher like Etches, Haskins has beat McDonnell before and I wouldn't put it past him to do it again, Smith won't make featherweight again and Selby already beat him there, Mitchell on form would be too good for Crolla and if Murray comes back around or just below the level he was previously at he beats Mathews. Liam Smith would be beaten by Rose, too experienced and a level above, Murray beats Barker on points and Macklin beats Lee, possibly inside the distance. Cleverly edges out Bellew on points and Enzo walks right through Ajisafe. I think Simmons would beat Dickinson as well.

Bit early for Gavin to be going in with a 50/50 chance against Khan or even Brook.
Pretty good list though

I really think Frampton would knock Quigg out.expe wrote:Good list that, I'd say Brook-Khan-Gavin is a series of 50-50 fights, Frampton-Quigg is 50-50, but both handle Galahad comfortably.
