A mouth watering prospect this would be.settle a lot of arguments thats for sure, so the hearns and warrens ot the world put up your money cos this would be summit else!!
Qf1 gary cornish (17_0_0 ) v tom dallas (17_4_0 )
Qf2 hughie fury (13_0_0 ) v antony joshua (5_0_0 )
Qf3 m7chael sprott (40_21_0 ) v sam sexton (19_3_0 )

The only problem with that is that Cornish won't be ready for somebody of Dallas' calibre for another twenty years, whilst Hughie Fury and Joshua won't face each other for a very very long time.

But anyway to indulge the idea (and stop being miserable), I would pick Dallas to flatten Cornish, Joshua to steamroller Fury, Sexton to decision Sprott, and Lewison to beat Towers.

In the semi's, Joshua would steamroller Dallas, and Sexton would decision Lewison.

In the final, Joshua would steamroller Sexton.

me too.

dallas could go on 17 straight wins if he faced the fodder they've given Cornish.

good idea but Joshua is a different class to all the others and Mcdernott can't cope with more than one fight every 18 months so wouldn't be interested. THE main point however is that this is an interesting division even without Joshua and there are good fights to be made its just a real shame they aren't happening.

As Eddie Hearn says it isn't the same if it isn't in one night for example the British board will have to make one of the fights for the vacant title and then it's just the champion defending against the rest.

Would never want that to happen.
If its the Prizefighter format it would be a mess, you can't put these fighters in for a British title if they fight over 3 rounds.
3 round fights may bring some entertainment but for me it certainly shouldn't be a barometer for a British title.
If the format was over 4-6 months in a 12 round format like the Froch World Series then I'd be interested though.
