All these guys listed wins over the last couple of nights. Gavin looked decent in his win over Vassel but I'm firmly in the camp that he can't make it at world level. The guys on Boxnation were sucking him off but if you watch the fight it was extremely sloppy, the rounds were close and Gavin was doing a better job of frustrating Vassell rather than winning the rounds.
Crolla is a good domestic scrapper and if he ever fights Burn he will get stopped.
I think Quigg is genuine world class quality and throws his punches in perfect text book fashion. If he was to fight Frampton now he would outclass him over 12. Quigg has a great chance of making his name in a limited division. It's a top heavy division and whereas Santa Cruz and Kameda are good fighters I can't see any of them beating Quigg.
Macklin is still one of those middleweights that can and will give the likes of Sturm, Geale, Barker and Murray problems but he is out of GGG and Martinez's leagues. I reckon Macklin goes on to fight a few more times and once Barker loses Geale there will be a domestic dust up.
Smith will trundle along in the domestic scene.
Now on to GGG, the destroyer of worlds. This man is the real deal, I was impressed with him in the past but his opposition wasn't exactly the best and the he did what he did last night. No one has ever obliterated Macklin, a fully fledged, career long middleweight. GGG has the power to hurt anyone in the division but I think talks of him being the best at 160 are unfair. Martinez is still the real world champ and till he is beaten GGG can not be regarded as number one. Will Martinez want this fight? I don't see it, if Martinez was a few years younger than maybe but now he is old, he has slowed and his body i giving up on him. Knee injuries, hand injuries...the list goes on. Martinez has seen his fair share battles and will want to close out on a big money high. Cotto next?
