        I think Brook is the most talented, but he fights in the most loaded division in the sport. It'll be a great result if he can beat Jennings early. What I'd like to see is Brook taking on someone with a great chin, as he still hasn't had a full distance fight. Another fight or two and I think Berto would be a great opponent for him.

        Mitchell probably has a decent chance as he fights in a division without much talent, and Warren seems to do a good job of getting his guys title shots. He seems to be having hand problems though, sadly.

        I don't think John Murray is anything special, but he has an entertaining style. Would be good to see him against Casamayor, if he won it would be a good learning fight for him, if he lost then he wouldn't have been good enough for a belt anyway.

        I'd give Jamie Moore a good chance of beating Cory Spinks, but only because Spinks seems to have slowed down now. Martinez+Dzinziruk would probably beat him. I hope he gets a title shot though, as he has been fringe world class for ages, and Martinez, Santos and Dzinziruk have been inactive for a while now. Shame they didn't put a fight together.

            And I'd love for Mitchell to win a title, but I see him being a KO on legs for that PR lad based on what I've seen to date. Serious improvement needed.

                I voted for Brook but it will be hard in the division he is in.

                  Brook, he won't be ready for a couple of years anyway and by them i foresee the likes of SSM, Cotto, PBF and Clottey will either be retired or ripe for picking.

                  he has all the necessary skills, he just needs to be gradually increased in level and see if he can maintain the performance level.

                    Yeah from what I have seen of Brook he looks the business, but it is just such a hard division. Can't wait to see what he does against Jennings, hopefully end it early and then go on to bigger things. I'm a big fan of Jamie Moore and Matthew Macklin, but they haven't really progressed as much as I thought they would.
