British Top 10

I can't work out whether you're serious or joking now. If serious then I'm embarassed for you.
As stated, neither of those are from my country, they're Irish. Carl Frampton is British, he is from Northern Ireland, a totally separate country. You've got to be American, surely? If that clueless..

I see your point for all of those, but it's all opinions I suppose. It's not all based on recent merit, but some of it is, so there's a mix of that in there really. If I was doing it all solely on who deserves it based on recent performances then it'd be a bit different no doubt.

I think Flanagan gets it tight just because he isn't marketable. And Brook I think is in a fair position based on the fact he's off 2 defeats, no matter who they're to. He wasn't my #1, I'd have had him behind Frampton and DeGale even before he lost.

Frampton is probably number 1 in terms of ability really and is only at 3 because of inactivity and his defeat, which I find fair. Selby not on that level for me. DeGale and Groves I don't feel I do have that far apart?

I rate BJS but he's been too poor in recent performances to merit a high ranking, by his own admission. Hopefully he beats Lemieux soon to change that, I'd propel him up if he did.

Bellew I can't take seriously enough, and he just misses out, I can't see who you'd take out for him really. Eubank Jr just about missed out for me and Josh Taylor, while on his way, is a couple of fights away from world level yet. Which the rest of these are at.

Yafai is probably 2 big fights away for me, rather than one.

Again it's all opinions though, I'm just trying to explain mine to you.

 

Two idiots who clearly know nothing of the man whatsoever. He's as British as they come. A huge Northern Ireland football fan, from a hugely unionist area, and absolutely identifies as British (because he is)... See his outrage at not being 2016 British Sports Personality of the Year for evidence, you pair of numpties.

The island of Ireland contains two countries though, one of which is British... Clue.. It's the one he lives in and is very proud of.

Where you get mixed up is that you believe that him being a gentleman without an ounce of bitterness, he breaches the gap and is loved by both sides of the community for that reason.

His affiliation is with the Irish Boxing Board. NOT the country of Ireland. They looked after his career as he puts it and as again... The gentleman that he is, he replayed that despite his politics.

Id consider learning about the topic I'm arguing about, before arguing About it, if I were you. Particularly when the person you're arguing with is an avid fan who hads done just that for years.

 

You are absolutely daft. You'd argue black was white if you honestly believe he doesn't identify as British.

See my previous post about the extent and reasons behind his boxing for Ireland.. I'm not explaining it to you again. Learn yourself.

The debate wasn't about whether he divides us. We both know he doesn't. Credit to him for it. The debate was when yourself and another claimed he shouldn't be on a British list, which is factually wrong, as he would tell you the opposite himself.

 

You've also come across as a real fool here, for all to see. I'd advise you to leave it at that

 

There goes James DeGale's career, that'll knock him down to the bottom of my top 10 now
