    Ok not sure if this has been done so apologies if it has.

    Recently, ESB held its p4p rankings which applied to all boxers. But how about a British and Irish p4p top ten list?

    Just quickly off the top of my head with not much thought...

    1) David Haye
    2) Amir Khan
    3) Carl Froch
    4) Ricky Burns (I was so wrong about the guy)
    5) Matthew Macklin
    6) Randall Munroe
    7) Nathan Cleverly
    8) John Murray
    9) Paul McCloskey
    10) Kell Brook

    mentions to Booth, Degale, Groves, Rhodes, Mitchell (i gotta have him in it) and Barker

    Begin the insults……..now!

    What's your list look like?

    I'd probably find room for Ryan Rhodes in there somewhere. Def ahead of Brook.

    I'd call McCloskey Irish and put Rhodes in there, maybe Munroe a bit lower.

    I just think he's a FW getting by at SBW just by using sheer size, I think he could make super-feather.

    Haye
    Froch
    Khan
    Burns
    Macklin
    Cleverly
    Rhodes
    Murray
    Munroe
    Brook

    to be honest m8 i didnt give it more than 2 minutes thought. But if it makes me seem intellegent then yeah why not :lol:

    Seriously tho, its a mix of resume and ability. If it was resume alone, id prob have Froch at the top

    Was more interested in seeing how people ranked them.

    Maybe fit Mitchell in at 10, but top 9 are spot on for my money.

    Okay. Yeah I was just thinking I guess if it's just on resume, Froch should be number one? Sounds strange rating him as a P4P fighter though!
