Am I out of turn by suggesting Benny Lynch is number 1 by a long stretch? And Ken Buchanan is number 2 by a long stretch? Yes or no? And who rounds out the top 5?
I have Buchanan as #1 and Benny Lynch as #2. After that there is a bit of a blur on whom would be next. I can think of Walter McGowan, Elky Clark, Jackie Paterson, Tancy Lee, Jim Watt, Bert Gilroy, Chic Calderwood, Murray Sutherland, Tommy Milligan and Evan Armstrong as candidates, but in what order? Also, I'm probably missing out on some standouts if anyone else wants to fill in some gaps
I'd put Lynch at number one,I think he is top five at fly anyway. The rest ,in no order. Buchanan McGowan Watt Paterson HM Lee Gilroy Keenan Jacobs Harrison Calderwood
There was talk of Harrison fighting Marquez at some point. He would have been absolutely lacerated had it happened
Benny & Kenny are Tops... Benny Lynch Ken Buchanan Elky Clarke Bert Gilroy Jackie Patterson Jim Brady Walter McGowan Chic Calderwood Tommy Milligan Peter Keenan Tancy Lee Alex Lafferty Jake Kilrain Johnny Hill Cowboy McCormack Jim Watt Johnny McCrory Scott Harrison Gary Jacobs Alex Arthur Ricky Burns and this new kid Josh Taylor could find himself in a very high place IF he can keep up the success... there are plenty of other noted fighters that were top & noted fighters as well. a Great History & Contribution Scotland has played in the Pugilistic Kingdom.
