    What say you ESB, is he right?

    Personally I find Amir Khan fights more exciting but that's just me.

    He could be.

    Amir Khan shouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence as Lennox Lewis.

    Khan's more exciting only because he's a far inferior fighter and his weaknesses are on full display almost every fight.

    Indeed, but exciting is exciting whether you're winning or getting KTFO.

    The best since Lewis, I'd give that crown to Calzaghe but sure an argument can be made. The best with Lewis of all time in the UK, no chance

    Froch taking a dig at Calzaghe. But after Joe & Lennox he has been the best, just edges Hatton for me and I think Froch has some left in the tank.

    calm it down Carl. yes, you're exciting, but never put your name along side Lennox again. or Calzaghe for that matter. you've proven yourself and put yourself in the history books, but don't start getting stupid again with the silly talk. you know how you got a huge back lash last time.

    Lennox
    Calzaghe
    Froch
    Hatton

    simple.

    Froch is full of it and that is coming from a fellow Englishman.

    He isn't even number 1 is his division, how can he beat rated as one of the best british boxers ever? Naz was way better than him.

    Agreed, that is if we are talking since Lennox and not all time.

    Some people try to pretend Victor Ortiz isn't exciting for some reason or another... like, "it doesn't count if it's just because he's stupid." Well then, what the hell is Khan?!?
