    Not the fastest, not the the hardest hitting but which fighter has the beautiful skill set?

    There are a few very technically sound fighters in the United Kingdom although I believe technically we are light years behind the US.

    For me Kell Brook is very very technically underrated and he is deffo up there with the best this country has to offer.

    Billy Joe Saunders is also very technically gifted aswell as Degale, Liam Walsh and Lee Haskins.

    I actually think gavin is overrated technically, I think brook looked better then him when they boxed and that was why he won, not because he was stronger but he is no slouch in that department.

    Billy Joe Saunders is a lovely boxer, but should fight at 154. He could make it with a lifestyle change, imagine the schooling he'd give Liam Smith.

    Agree with Selby,Luke Campbell on the way maybe,interesting choice Lee Haskins,nice to see that although his fights seem WWE esque sometimes his technical abilities ie power movement accuracy is overlooked and causes his opponents many problems with dealing with his technically sound but unusual style

    He'd be an absolute monster at 147, but don't think he'd make it, 154 though I fancy him. How tall was he, 5'10?
