I think a Mitchell-Katsidis fight would be great and I was criticized by a few Aussies when I suggested it as the Brit fighter more suited to Kats level and weight than Khan.
I think Cleverly is ready for another step-up, he looked excellent, if he tightens up getting caught by those counter lefts, he could be a serious proposition. He should go for the WBO or WBA belts though because any of Dawson, Cloud, Johnson or Pascal would brutalize him right now.
DeGale did look good and I think he was only arsing about because it was as good as in his hometown and he brought a lot of the support in. I thought he dealt with Barr very effectively, and he's surprised me with his potential, although Warren has to get these guys fighting more regularly.
I saw some serious flaws in Gavin who I thought was the best of the Beijing bunch. He gets countered much too easily and he still hasn't really corrected this, and the commentators seem to ignore it. I think at some stage he's going to fight someone who just catches him with too good a shot and then there will be trouble.
