Lee Selby (IBF) vs. Josh Warrington - May 19th 2018

[Bigdogsnose]

I'd have warrington the bottom of the 5 - Selby, Frampton, Galahad, Quigg and himself.

I think Quigg's his best chance as I think the others would be able to outbox him. He'd land more against Quigg but I don't think he hits hard enough to hurt him and deter him.

There's some cracking fights to be made at featherweight mind.

W@rren made a "big" offer to Selbys team and heard nothing back apparently...

Warren isn't serious about an offer until he mentions putting the money in an Escrow account.

When Frank says he's made a 'big' offer to someone, be 100% sure that fight is never going to happen.

Warrington wins on points, he's improving with every fight, Selby is overrated and Warringtons constant pressure and workrate would cause him problems, plus the fight would probably be in Leeds.

Offer is on the table, Warrington is waiting on Selby apparently - http://www.BS.com/josh-warring ... le--119094

100% Selby. The bookie's odds will show that. Not that it will stop Warrington from giving his all, but Selby competed at a whole different level. Selby's probably Britain's most underrated world champion. I'd love to see Selby fight Frampton. That would be a tough call.

hopefully W@rren can get this made for next summer at Elland Road...

Selbys too much for him

[ewenhay]

I still think Selby wins but his inactivity is a concern. Warrington looked fit and determined last night from the 4th onwards and if Selby isn't in top condition it could be a close one down the stretch.

I agree with this. Selby boxed 3 times in 2 years. While Warrington has been matched well getting valuable rounds. I think it's a closer fight than most people think.

If you had a fiver for every time he’s said that you could almost stage the fight yourself.

How many big offers for Saunders/Flanagan etc....Saunders is now travelling to Montreal mid December so Frank doesn’t need to spend anything.

Yeah I can’t imagine Selby seeing anything in Warrington to bother him at all. However complacency could be a factor if they do meet - although I maintain Selby is a level above, he’s been inactive and could overlook Warrington as being any sort of threat, so he could end up getting outworked over the distance if he comes in unfocused (which isn’t exactly rare with Selby).

Since Selby beat Gradovich - left Matchroom and joined Haymon he’s barely fought in 2 years.

He’s getting on the odd ITV card but the move certainly has stalled him and inactivity is only thing bringing Warrington closer to him.

Selby’s levels above josh who,s just an honest trier

I stand by this assessment.

Yea DeGale was right when he tweeted that

Think the bigger/better fight will motivate Selby more.

Skill wise he’s different level to Warrington.

[Andrew]

I think Selby is probably the most overrated fighter on this forum.

Josh is going to prove a lot of people wrong when this happens.
