Dunno, he could fight Floyd soon...

Callum Smith
Anthony Joshua

Ronnie Clark

I assume that this thread doesn't include former World Champions (like Amir Khan, Nathan Cleverly).

I'd say:

Carl Frampton
George Groves
James DeGale
Tyson Fury
Tony Bellew

(Of course a lot of this relies on these guys getting the right fights at the right time, if not they could blow their chance).

Haha!! Let's get him the British Title first!!! Before conquering the world!!

Frampton
Degale
Selby
Joshua
Campbell
Smith
Fury

Butler
Frampton

After that it's anyone's guess, depends on who gets the right fights at the right times, Burns is expected to fight Figueroa in September, provided he gets past Zlaticanin, DeGale would be high on the list, Quigg if he gets the Santa Cruz fight, Selby's not far off a world title fight, Mitchell may fight Vazquez, Kell Brook has the Porter fight lined up, Saunders and Fury/Chisora have world title eliminators next month, Bellew and Cleverly will be in the mix sooner or later, Brian Rose fights Andrade next Saturday, Paul Smith appears to be close to the Abraham fight, Groves will be back up at that level sooner or later, Gavin's moving towards a world title fight, David Price has the power to win a world title, despite his questionable chin, Khan could win a world title as well and there's always the odd one who comes from nowhere to win a world title.

Good shout especially with him being at the lighter weights where you get an opportunity quicker than other weights.

agree with the first two and they will be champs next week and in September
Gavin no chance at all in my opinion and i am a massive fury fan but he will not beat Klit
I also think Degale will be IBF champ when Froch vacates,,

Groves could also get a belt and set up a fight wil Degale

Paul Smith and Billy Joe Saunders are both in líne for WBO shots

I think the Bundu fight will tell us a lot about BJS and if he's ready, I would of liked to have seen him take a couple of euro fights before stepping up as he's not had a hard test besides Ryder, we saw with Price what can happen when you take a big jump up in class, also he's still only 24. Would prefer Murray to face kid chocolate but god knows what he's doing.

Butler has fought no one and after the weekend he will have to go back to his old weight. Fury will only get a title if klitschko retires or if possibly he spends time training in America.
Degale needs to speed up and needs some real fights under his belt.

Butler won't hurt hall and will not be champion this weekend.
Let's see fury fight some real opposition.
Degale needs more rounds against credible opponents.

Paul Butler
Carl Frampton
Kell Brook
Kevin Mitchell
James Degale

Frampton
Brook
DeGale
Crolla
Fury

Whilst his ranking is impressive would anyone give Butcher a chance against Juan Francisco Estrada? I like Iain and he's a good fighter but...Estrada is nasty and would walk through Butcher. I see only 1 guy who I'd favour against JFE at 112lbs and it's not Butcher.

Whilst you can get shots quicker at 112/115 you need to think about who'd they'd be fighting and 112lbs is stacked more than any other division right now.
