Kell Brook would be my pick.

David Haye

i dont think the retirement of RJJ will speed up Clevs World title ambitions. I'd be much more concerned about Dawson, and even the likes of Tarver than RJJ.

Im reluctantly taking to Brook... we'll know more once the Jennings fight is done and dusted... GO MIKE!

am gonna go with kevin mitchell think the move of trainer will make his defence better and think he,l beat both burns and martinez

Nathan Cleverly is looking excellent to me at the minute. Has all the goods, including ring smarts, and now it seems, genuine power.

Think John Murray has a good shot also.

Valuev / Big Klit/ Little Klit

End of Haye.



Kell brook would be my vote over cleverley.

I see a few have picked Brook. Whilst I see a lot of potential there, there's a long way to go from where he currently is to the elite welters such as Mosley, Cotto, Mayweather, Clottey and Berto.

Christymetcalfe, you just beat me to it.

Haye punched himself out and was stopped on his feet against Thompson, plus it was only his 11th fight

Erm, why?

Haye will be next world champ, followed by title shots for Clev, Brook and Murray..

PS Above all of them I'd love to see Mooresy get his shot in 2010

Good discussion point..... tough one.

Herbie hide is in the prime position, will his chin let him down.

To be honest... I think alot will depend on who they fight. Brook will not beat a Cotto, but who knows if Cotto vacates etc.

Rendell Munroe has been a long European champion, but seems to be a long way off a shot.

I think the next fighter to emerge as a world class fighter is Brook, will some fighter win a vacant title first remains to be seen.

He's next inline for the WBC though isnt he (Hide)

The highly beatable Fragomeni holds the WBC belt. The IBF belt is now vacant.

I cannot see Alfolabi beating Huck, and then I can see him being frozen out.

How about Olusegun..... can he be counted as a Brit though?

Tough down at Super Bantam... like to think if Dunne could get a world belt... then Munroe might be able to also.

Cleverly for me he seem's to be getting better with every fight. I think Brook may struggle with Jennings so thats why im not saying him. Also John Murray deserves a title shot soon after a fight with either Yuri Romanov or Meezache

christymetcalfe1 wrote:olusegun is a ridiculous comment , hes similar skill level to nigel wright he wouldnt beat mcloskey or witternever mind b able to lay a glove on the likes of bradley or kahn

Well, the comment was based on his ranking and his next fight. He has the opportunity to strike first.

kev mitchell if warren can get him a title shot sooner rather than later

Kel Brook will be a world champion - I have no doubts.

Gavin & Saunders could make it.

Its called an opinion and if you were to think outside of the box just a tadge - by the time Brook is ready for a world title - the likes of Cotto would have had their day!!!

christymetcalfe1 wrote:yeye fair enough i can see it maybe somewere down the line .. to slow and not enough absolute knock out power for me tho.. just a fighter very good at a few things but not good enough at anything

Maybe the following wins in his last 3 fights are not good enough for you

Lomax TKO 3

Elwell TKO 2

McIntyre TKO 1

Christy,

I have entertained myself for a while - but alas after reading your posts on other threads I will leave you to the others!!

Spud, how do you see Jennings v Brook? A lot of people reckon it wil be a blowout for Brook but I personally think Jennings has plenty left in the tank and will outsmart him.

Brook looks the business, but I still plump for Mick. If it is a blowout in Brook's favour we can't discount his title credentials. This is the biggest test of his career by far.
