I think audley harrison should get a shot against sprott. Both ex EU title holders, both ranked high domestically, both 2 time prize fighter winners, also people want to see sprott v harrison III. It would be a very big fight for the british title.

Well Big Aud is currently in Sheffield at the moment, and since their have been rumours of his return I would be hugely surprised if he is not in the mix for a shot in an eliminator/title shot scenario.

But, I agree with the concenus on this thread, it will be a pretty weak Brit champion whatever the outcome. Shame really because I feel that we have been spoilt in terms of the fighters scrapping for the belt over the last 7 years, perhaps the good times are over!!

There's only one Danny Williams :TU:

Danny V Fraudley - Match made in heaven :yay:

In all seriousness Sprott is the most likely - Who he would fight is anyone's guess. I'd prefer Hughie Fury rather than McDermott or Sexton or even Lewison

Lewison would beat Hughie.

Would produce a credible champ.
McDermott walks it, to be honest.

It might be an opportunity for McDermott to get a British title, other than that we might have the depressing situation of having Hughie Fury boxing Cornish for the title which for me would be a new low for British boxing.

There is very little depth to the division - why not get Joshua fighting for it?
Fury-Cornish wouldn't be as bad as Leon Williams-Shane McPhilbin, struggle to get any lower than that.
God that was an awful fight. I'm falling asleep now just remembering it.

He's beaten 3 journeymen so far, Price would knock him out and he would be beaten by McDermott, Sprott, Skelton and Sexton.

Audley would destroy Williams.
