    If we had to take on a US/Irish/European team what would our side look like? One fighter for each weight class down to Flyweight. Here's mine:

    Heavy - David Haye
    Cruiser - Enzo Maccarinelli
    Light Heavy - Clinton Woods
    Super Middle - Carl Froch
    Middle - Matthew Macklin
    Light Middle - Jamie Moore
    Welter - Ricky Hatton
    Light Welter - Junior Witter
    Light - Amir Khan
    Super Feather - Kevin Mitchell
    Feather - Paul Appleby
    Super Bantam - Rendall Munroe
    Bantam - Ian Napa
    Super Fly - Don Broadhurst
    Fly - Chris Edwards

    Amir Khan in every division above lightweight and he would be victorious.

    Dunne's not British. But I agree he's better than Munroe.

    no doubt - but he's still Irish.

    Ask him if he is Irish/English/British and you'll only get one answer.

    It doesn't matter. He's legible for a British team and that's why people have picked him. Arguably the same for McCloskey and I think Duddy.
