In 2yrs whos going to rule SMW?

That shows how stacked the division really is I needed about 15 poll options but it only let me have 10.

true, but you should have put Green instead of Taylor. I think froch is terrible but he was able to ko taylor so I think taylor doesn't even deserve to be on that list.

I know he's still a prospect, but people need to look at Anthony Dirrell, he's even a better boxer than his brother Andre.

Im pretty ignorant about Anthony honestly. Ive seen him fight but its been awhile and I dont remember much. How does his handspeed and pure athleticism match up with Andre?

You'll notice I didnt add Andrade to the poll, so its not that I was impressed with the last second KO or anything I just didnt see anything special in Bute. He seemed quick enough against Andrade and did ok, bu kind of seemed a lot like a watered down Calzaghe to me.

Yeah I did. I think you forgot Balzay. He's a good fighter as well and will give any of the others trouble. In fact his win over Inkin is better than Froch's over Pascal.

Fair enough. I kind of thought he wouldnt get voted for since he lost to Miranda who is now also being called terrible. Like I said its just a straight up stacked division.

What I like most about the division is everyone seems to want to fight each other. Not very often you see a division this stacked, and even less often they are willing to test themselves against the best fighters in that division. Any one of the fighters in the poll plus a few others have a legitimate shot a being a champ.

Thats true, its great to have a guys like Froch in there who really WANT it, the guy in particular has impressed me - not in style but attitude, character and grit

Kessler could learn a thing or two from him

Anthony fights in a more conventional stance, very fast hands, very athletic. Just a better boxer then his brother Andre. He won the national golden gloves at middleweight.

I think Kessler has all the tools needed to be #1 at SMW, he just needs to get to the big shows and show it.

speaking of Kessler...does he ever remind anyone of Drago from Rocky IV?

[AKATheMack]

Yeah I did. I think you forgot Balzay. He's a good fighter as well and will give any of the others trouble. In fact his win over Inkin is better than Froch's over Pascal.

Another fighter that didnt get added because of my own personal ignorance on him. I watch as much boxing as I possibly can but I have a pretty hectic schedule and I am a customer of possibly the worst cable provider in America.

I think none of those names. Korobov is a young, bigger, sturdier, russian version of Cotto. Look for him to become a huge force and to step up competition real quick in the next 2 years

I was impressed with him, but he didnt deserve mention on the poll after all the work these other guys have put in. You could very well be right though he seems like a very good prospect.
