    Like everyone else said the only UK guy that ranks higher p4p atm is Froch.

    froch was never knocked the **** out in less than a minute. I would have to say Froch is ranked higher. he has an excelent resume and only one loss.

    Carl Froch is by far Britain's best fighter. Fought better competition, hasn't been brutally KOed in 58 seconds by an average fighter, does not handpick his competition and isn't coddled like Khan has been.

    Khan is a Glass Jawed Fraud. He is a joke and the laughingstock of Boxing just like Haye is.

    He's supposed to think he's the best, even if he isn't.

    I don't really get why people make a big thing out of PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES being cocky. They need confidence, and there's a thin line between confidence and arrogance/cockiness. Sometimes they simply come together.

    It'd be different if he said something like "the other UK fighters are garbage".

    I definitely rank Froch higher, and you can argue that Froch has shown more improvement (in his performances) than Khan has also.

    :deal straight up man... this is why I don't like this kid. He needs to be hit back to reality. Zab delivers that, I hope.

    Froch should be ranked higher, better Resume, one close loss and a dramatic improvment in his style as he fights better competition.

    As for Khan, he needs to think before he runs his mouth. I know self confidence is key to a fighter, but he really does consider himself to be above people, he should find the line between confidence (which can be both entertaining and charming) and arrogance.
    I'm from the UK, but I hope Judah beats him, just to bring him down a peg or two.

    Froch has had a decent run but he is no Oscar or Holyfield he has won 2 vacant "paper" titles and hasnt beaten the number 1 guy in his division got a gift against a green dirrel etc I would rate Froch higher at the moment but it is hardly much more considering taylor and abraham are blown up middleweights who have beaten no one at 168 and old man Johnson moving down in weight.

    Oh look, it's the typical responses of "I hope (insert fighter here) knocks him down a peg"

    What the **** do you expect him to say? "No, compared to guys like Froch and Haye I'm a massive pile of ****... just glad to be here being a massive fraud and all. Hopefully I'll get knocked the **** out again in my next fight. It's been great talking to you"

    The kid has a lot of confidence in his abilities, it's all he has. Because he certainly isn't winning any Nobel Prizes, that's for sure. Give him a break.

    Spot on.

    Solid, how can you say 'same here' when you clearly DON'T understand where he's coming from? If you did, you wouldn't be making this thread.

    Dude's post echo's my sentiments perfectly.
