    At present I can't think of a single uk fighter that is showing the signs of becoming a global force in boxing. Not since the days of lewis have we had somebody that truly is the best in the world. We have some good champions and good prospects, but who will become a great?

    Joshua is the best bet as the K bro's will be gone by the time he reaches world level, the division will be up for grabs.

    probably Joshua although UK has a lot of talent coming through just now in the next 5 - 10 years British boxing may have its best period.

    the youngest smith brother has impressed me, he really can bang for a super middleweight. Frampton looks good but not sure if world class

    To be fair as soon as Wlad/Vitali retires it's possible anyone as far down as Chisora currently is (top 15) could be World Champion. It will become a very exciting division after ten years of stagnation.

    I agree Joshua or perhaps Callum Smith will break out in the next couple of years.
