    I think they rank those boxers with a British boxing license.

    Sorry, misread the question. I didn't see it was SKYs rankings, I guess they've just followed Boxing News and ranked him?

    On their preview show of the Mag 7. The top 4 was:

    1. David Haye
    2. Albert Sosnowski
    3. Audley Harrison
    4. Michael Sprott

    :rofl

    They put up the British top 10 when talking about the Chisora/Sexton fight on one of the countdown shows they're doing. Sosonowski was second behind Haye.

    speaking of rankings i am going to re-start the ESB Brit forum british rankings.

    Its your call Rob but IMHO you should rank all the eligible fighters in a division including the world champions. You rankings arn't getting used to decide who should get British title shots or eliminators so theres no reason to exclude fighters who are beyond British level.

    Just rank 'em all and let the reader decide the likelyhood of which fighters would be interested in a British title.

    Really made me cringe looking at these "rankings".

    Absolute joke for Sky to try and help sell Audley as a genuine contender. Audley at 3 is bad enough but Sprott at 4 just to claim it was a great win for Harrison :lol: brilliant!
