Yeah but he isn't just yet.

No idea what the plan is for him just yet but I'd have thought a European title fight (or equivelant level fight) would be in his plans for the next fight or in his next 2 fights.

It's not that Kell isnt world class, it's just that as of yet his best opponents are Matthew Hatton and Carson Jones. Until we see how he does against the big boys of the division you cant say.

Is Frankie Gavin "elite class?". No and not ever. World titles mean hee haw these days.

Promoters relationships with Governing Bodies are more important than World Titles.

I think he would beat Brook. Brook is overated. Has he got any wins better than Vassel. Yes he struggled with Curtis and even Mutley but its well known he wasn't right then, just like when Brook nearly lost to Jones.

potentially yes, looked scrappy at times last few fights but he is a class operator and onces fully switched on consistently he will make that step no problem

yes - denton is no push over so that win really does show he is capable of being a big noise.

:TU:

yep its hard to tell whether any fighter wil be world class unitl they move up in class ...

Im a bit surprised that there seems to be a few anti Kell .... i personally think kell has a lot of potential and like mitchell kell wasn't committed to the finer of details of boxing and wasnt in the right shape when boxing jones 1st... kells collapse in the latter stages of that fight and eddies post match interview highlighted kells NEED to buckle down and take training serious... kells physique has changed and i personally feel he is a future WC... but mind you i said that price would do well so what do i know :o :)

I think Frankie Gavin could beat Paulie Malignaggi pretty easily.

He's a 2 weight world champion. He could Andre Berto too.

He'd need to increase his punch output and change his style adopted for his last fight.

I could see PM not getting tied up and instead just backing off, throwing combinations.

Broner fought a dumb fight though. He was flat footed and walking forward and not caring about what was coming back at him.
