    I'm going with Boots. I cant say it's because of any 1 thing I just see something when he fights that makes me believe he will take the division over.

            I agree but for fairness I added him. Like I said he completely slipped my mind when thinking of possible future leaders in the division. I for one think he will fight Khan next and continue down that sort of path for a while before he even attempts to step up his level of opposition.

              I hope not, Froch is right, Khan is only good for getting knocked out now, it would be a mismatch.

              I want to see him against someone like Mean Machine or Avanesyan.

              However i think you're right, it'll be easy touches until Hearn is ready to cash him out.

                I think boots looks the best of the bunch but he looks fair big at the weight so I'm not sure he will stick around to be a dominant champ

                  - - Well, Boots turned out to be better career wise than Cornflake, but not by earnings.

                  Personality in the ring wise, he make terrible Terence look like Liberace.

                    Boots appears more skilled but I think Ortiz can chin-check him. Honestly, I think both outgrow the class before they ever meet.
