Top 5 British p4p list in 12 months time !!
1. Amir Khan..............Think he'll have either have caught Mayweather at the right time or will have beaten Kell Brook...
2. Carl Frampton.........Can see him beating Quigg next summer...Be a great this kid.
3. George Groves........He'll beat Dirrell for the crown and Froch will have retired....
4. Billy Jo Saunders.....Beats Eubank Jr and beats Korobov....
5. James Degale.........Think he'll fight and win a World title......

1. Froch/Degale - 50/50 for me as Froch isn't getting any younger
2. Frampton - x2 what you said Truss
3. Kell Brook - Beats Khan if he fights him or defends against somebody realitively easy
4. George Groves- Beats Abraham to claim strap
5. David Haye if he actually fights

1. Carl Froch - Think he beats JCC jr and DeGale in the next year and remains top of the tree.
2. Carl Frampton - Beats Avalos then either Quigg or Santa Cruz next summer and to be honest I think he is a fair shout to be 2nd already.
3. Kell Brook - Don't think he will get the fight he needs to go any higher by this time next year see a soft comeback in Feb/March followed by an Alexander type next summer. Khan will be too busy getting spanked by Mayweather.
4. George Groves - Fancy him to beat Dirrell next summer to pick up a strap and is probably a step ahead of BJS at the moment.
5. Billy Jo Saunders - Agree with Truss, beats Eubank Jr followed by Korobov for the WBO belt.
Notable mentions would go to - Selby, Fury and Butler. All who should pick up another win or two between now and then. Although Butler may struggle in terms of strength of opposition.

Selby is a good pick. Haye is a contoversial pick. It's just the heavyweight scene is that dire I could see him taking 2 or 3 scalps next year to be top contendor again or maybe hold a strap.

To be honest I'd considered Haye myself but have just lost all faith in him and his comebacks and I'm just resigned to him not fighting again.

David Haye would have to beat someone significant to hit the Top 5 Mate..
I'd have Froch top but I think he'll be retired this time next year.

I cant understand how Fury can be considered on anyones British pound for pound list. Bellew and Cleverly, man even kevin mitchell, ranks higher on my p4p list.

Haye, Joshua and Price are all better than Fury and they will be in 12 months time.

Re: Top 5 British p4p list in 12 months time !!
Reason I included Fury in the notable mentions is because I fancy him to bear Chisora and pick up another couple of wins between now and then.
Including possibly beating Wilder if the fight gets made. If he does that then I think he deserves to be at least close to top 5 in Britain.

I reckon BJS will get stopped by CEJ

Can't see what that's based on. Unless CEJ has been seriously cruising so far. Haven't seen much power from him either.
Think BJS will take it by 3-4 rounds.

We had a guy called Engels Pedroza who was smacking out journeymen for fun in California.....Think he was something like 21-0 21 .......Handsome, exciting and even got a spread in KO...
They put him up with a tough former contender in Jeff Franklin and he got slapped and was never heard from again..
Think anybody who picks Eubank is just having a wild shot in the dark...
Never beat anybody British level and BJS is World level...
Saunders in 5..

You think there's question marks over CEJ's chin, Truss?
I think BJS's power suffers due to his hand issues, and CEJ has enough of his father's chin to avoid getting sparked.

I just think he'll be outclassed and he looks like the kind of guy who won't like it up him...Looks like a bully to me.
His Dad had tremendous heart and durability...........But in Boxing it never seems to run in the family...
Could be wrong but I think he'll lose heart quite early...and when you do that punches hurt even more than they should..

I don't think Eubank jr is ready for Saunders yet. Haven't seen anything from him that says this will even be competitive. Points due to Saunders lack of power. Think Ryder beats Eubank too.

Might not mean much, but I watched Eubank and Froch spar and Eubank gave Froch hell in it. Caught him with right after right after right and backed Froch up a lot.
