    I've just done a badly written blog on my top 3, I wonder what the rest of the us Brits have has ours. I personally like entertainers, and warriors rather than stylish boxers, so I chose Nonito Donaire, Mikkell Kessler and Sergio Martinez.

    What are everyone else's and why?

    I was tempted to put Cotto in there. But his whole changing trainer and attitude towards training makes me a bit annoyed. He would definitely be in my top 5 though. Great fighter.

    Top 2 are on lockdown:

    Cristian Mijares
    Miguel Acosta

    Number 3? You're looking at in excess of like 20 fighters that could take that mantle, it changes on an hourly basis.

    Froch - He brings it EVERY time. A TRUE fighter.

    Martinez - Classy Fighter.

    Manny Pac - Simply Awesome.
