    The guys record speaks for itself. Not the most most physically gifted, he has however done the best he could with his talent.

    He's there with Calzaghe, behind Lewis. If we need to be objective, Calzaghe didn't face an opponent like Ward.

    British needs to stop claiming Lewis as if Lewis is pure 100% UK British.


    Lennox Lewis said it himself that he is Jamaican first then British then Canadian.

    Eubank was also good, to me Benn was better. So he's there with Calzaghe and Benn. Benn was a dirty boxer, I liked him.

    Calzaghe is not in the discussion sorry. This is a threat about legends not opportunist.

    Calzaghe would have barely dropped a round against Froch.

    Prime Calzaghe Benn Eubank Watson all beat Froch ( as much as i am a huge Froch fan) just to name four Brits that would beat the cobra.

    Hamed was a hype job. Domestic level at best. Got his clock cleaned the first time he fought a world class fighter and was never seen again.

    100% agreed. Fair play to Froch tonight though.
