who was the most talented/skilled black fighter to come out of england

Shocker! :yikes

That's more like it...:good

 

McMillan was a beautiful boxer dude.

 

I know that mate, just playing with ya. Shocked you mentioned Sweet C before Eubank...

 

When he'd double his jab and put a sneak right behind it he was slick and his footwork was slick on the back foot laterally, the flashiest of flurries

 

if were letting Scots in how about Kirkland Laing ,born in Jamaica
and British as .......

Now theres the best skilled/ talented IC3 British /English /Scottish /Welsh whatever fighter ever

 

Errol Christie was absolutely terrific, just didn't have punch resistance or world-class traits in things like strength and concentration

 

Laing is overrated IMHO. Beat one world class (admittedly ATG) guy, an unmotivated Duran, and lost to a **** load of domestic/ European level fighters.

 

In terms of just talent, Herbie Hide maybe deserves a mention for his hand speed for a heavyweight

 

With Herbie Hide the only thing that appeared slick was the slippery slope he was on when somebody touched that chin. He was mostly just an athlete with a huge punch, not that talented boxing skill wise IMHO.

Probably Conteh or Watson as technicians.

 

id say lewis. im taking into consideration his size as this would greatly affect his speed, agility, stamina, co-ordination etc Nevertheless, on top form, he was probably the most well rounded and greatest super heavyweight.

 

Totally agree ,always looked like he wanted to be somewhere else ,but had shitloads of natural talent and skill

 

Why I said just talent not skill

Hand speed is a talent

 

I think Graham was more awkward than anything with the low-handed switch-hitting, moving and grabbing and turning etc

Personally

Evasive, sure

 

steve robinson was pretty solid he'd definitely be considered world class in todays standards

 

Joe Calzaghe for me
