    LMAO at some little weirdo called "Prince Patel" beating up Hungarian bums being in the WBSS tournament :D

    I'd like to see him move up and fight Dogbone.

    What's even worse is, Eubank Junior will win.

    Callum Smith is totally ordinary.

    This trophy is irrelevant. Benevidez and Uzcat are the two best super middleweights in the world.

    Zurdo Ramirez is better than Eubank/Smith as well.

    I agree but it's abominable nonetheless.

    What we will hear now is "I really beat Groves so this is only fair etc etc"

    I haven't even seen Benavidez tbh.

    From what I have seen, Ramirez and Uzcategui are the 2 best supermiddles. How good is he compared to those 2?

    Benavidez is the youngest and most naturally talented of the three. I think he'd outbox Zurdo, but I do wanna see how he'd handle Zurdo's pressure.

    Dunno who I'd pick between Benavidez and Uzcat. The later has improved a lot since losing a few years ago.

    Uzcat is really good, I was very impressed by him in the Dirrell rematch. Haven't seen Benavidez though.

    Callum Smith is alright, but he's too basic and straight up to really go far.

    Between Benavidez, Munguia, and Haney, just to name three, the future of the sport is in a good place as far as young stars go.

    Interesting, I'll check him out.

    Like Slicey just said, Uzcat was impressive in the Dirrell rematch, he seems legit.

    Zurdo is a weird one. He looks big and powerful and athletic, but evidently doesn't have much power. Even with his pressure style and size, he barely gets any stoppages at this level. He can fight though, I do quite like him.

    If I had to pick the guy I think is probably the best now at 168, not having seen Benavidez, it would be Uzcategui.

    Don't forget Spence. I mean, he is actually pushing 30, but it seems like he's only just come on the scene really, and hasn't even been in a big fight yet. Same as the Charlos, although I much prefer Spence.

    Spence is awesome.

    I was just naming off the really young guys. Haney is only 19, and Munguia/Benavidez are the two youngest belt holders in the sport.

    But yes, Spence is a young 28 and has many years of prime left.

    Around the same age as Spence, there's Bivol, who probably hasn't even hit his prime yet and is already awesome.

    Isaac Dogboe looks like a beast and is only 23.

    Lots of young, talented guys out there.

    What are people's thoughts on Adames? He fought on Saturday but it was hard to judge.
