    The latest EBU ratings issued on June 17 show the dominance currently being enjoyed by British fighters in Europe. They take account of all results and events up to end of May so Audley Harrison was still champion as he had not relinquished his title then.

    6 Sam Sexton
    8 Martin Rogan
    11 Michael Sprott

    12 Robert Norton
    13 David Dolan

    Light Heavyweight Champion: Nathan Cleverly
    6 Danny McIntosh
    14 Tony Bellew
    15 Courtney Fry
    16 Darren Stubbs

    Super Middleweight Champion: Brian Magee
    2 Carl Froch
    5 Paul Smith
    16 George Groves

    Middleweight Champion: Darren Barker
    Mandatory Challenger: Matthew Macklin (Purse bid results released today)
    7 Martin Murray
    13 Darren McDermott

    Light Middleweight Champion Ryan Rhodes
    3 Sam Webb
    6 Matthew Hall
    7 Anthony Small
    10 Craig Watson
    11 Bradley Pryce

    Welterweight Champion: Matthew Hatton
    6 Michael Jennings
    7 Kell Brook
    11 Mark Thompson
    13 Kevin McIntyre
    18 John O’Donnell

    Light Welterweight Champion: Paul McCloskey
    1 Ajose Olusegun
    2 Gavin Rees
    4 Junior Witter
    8 Lenny Daws
    9 Jason Cook
    11 Colin Lynes
    12 Nigel Wright
    17 Barry Morrison

    Lightweight Champion: John Murray
    2 Kevin Mitchell
    3 Lee McAllister
    6 Alex Arthur
    7 John Watson
    11 Gary Buckland
    15 Henry Castle

    Super Featherweight
    4 Ricky Burns
    5 Gary Sykes
    6 Scott Lawton
    9 Andy Morris

    Featherweight
    1 Martin Lindsay
    3 John Simpson
    13 Jaime Arthur
    14 Paul Truscott

    Super Bantamweight
    Mandatory Challenger: Jason Booth (now fighting for IBF)
    1 Rendall Munroe
    3 Scott Quigg
    5 Michael Hunter
    7 Craig Lyon
    8 Matthew Marsh

    Bantamweight Champion: Jamie McDonnell
    2 Ian Napa
    6 Don Broadhurst

    Flyweight
    Mandatory Challenger: Lee Haskins
    7 Shinny Bayaar
    8 Ashley Sexton
    9 Chris Edwards

    These ratings take account of all results up to 31st May 2010. In the EBU lists however many challengers are considered eligible and capable to challenge for the title but setting the limit at 20. In some divisions this may be as low as seven. At the end of May British fighters held ten of the 14 titles and in two other divisions the mandatory challenger was British. I don’t believe that any country has reached this number of ten champions simultaneously. World champions such as David Haye and Amir Khan are not eligible for rating, and they also list Willie Limond as WBU champion, although my understanding is that he relinquished the title some months back.

    pretty clear that McCLoskey needs to fight Olusegun. Both ranked by the WBC in the top 10.
