    I'm having a hard time deciding who is the best p4p from the UK at the moment. There are some close calls.

    What do you think, ESB?

    Throw out a top 3-5

    My gut says Froch but we've got to look at his last outing. He was knocked down and nearly out by a guy with 19 fights who was taking a huge step up. From then, he was thoroughly outboxed by the same guy who again, had never been on that stage.

    I know Khan has his problems, but at this stage he may just be better than Froch.

    Slyk are you stupid or do you just really hate froch?

    Khan was knocked down aswell in his last fight and barely scraped by Diaz, hasn't had a good win since 2011, lost 2 of his last 4 fights, brutally KO'd in one of them.

    Saying khan is better than froch at this point is laughable, don't make yourself look stupid man :good

    We have got some very good fighters coming through but right now I would say has to be Froch as he has achieved the most.

    Froch, Murray, Gavin, Brook & Frampton in no particular order except that Froch is first. Groves knocking on the door and obviously gaining entry (and creating a problematic kerfuffle in the ordering) if he beats Froch in their rematch.

    The likes of Khan and Fury have star power and name value beyond any of them, but honestly on form they aren't up there with the five above.
