Brook has near enough twice the amount of fights as those you have listed. Do you know who Brook was fighting when he was 13 - 0, 5 years ago? Karl David. Brook also doesn't have the amateur pedigree that those fighters have.

David Price?

Based on what...

I like Price, I think he's made some good progression so far and has shown devastating power. But he's yet to be truly tested and there are worries over his chin.

Seriously, you just made yourself look like a right deekhead.

I'm basing this on what I see. Dont really care how many fights they've had. I see potential/worl beaters early on and non of these guys are world beaters. Having watched the de gale/groves fight just highlighted how much euro level these two are. They can have as much fights as ryan rhodes. Still wont get them anywhere. Brooks/Price I "see" making impacts. Trust me. You'll bow down before me offering your apology soon enough...

If these guys become world titlelist, I'll eat my hat.

I don't rate DeGale but Groves was in line for a world title shot only last month.

I can't believe you just said ' trust me '.

I really hope you're trolling here Deek, doing a great job if so.

Amir Khan was probably one of our most talented boxers and look how good he is now.

I really, really hope you're around here in several years Deek.

If you can see potential world beaters early on, why haven't you identified Billy Joe Saunders? Who has just come off beating Pryce one handed and not losing a round in the process.

What impact does Price make? Apart from hitting the canvas?

Don't include Brook, he's a contender now - no prospect and Price is just blinding you with his power.

I agree with you on one thing, DeGale isn't going very far. However, to write off Groves, Gavin & BJS is just pure stupidity.

Then you may already want to prepare yourself for that eating challange. Those 2 are not great fighters, but I'm pretty sure at least one of those two and I believe both of them, will get a title at some point. Divisions rarely stay great for long perior of time, Super Middleweight was great lately, so we can expect downhill soon. There's a place for Groves and DeGale in there.

He looks good but I thought he should have stopped Pryce.

One concern with BJS is that he has already had problems with hand injuries which I hope isn't a big problem for the future..
