    My favs at least. Maybe I'd put Calzaghe in there but I don't like him as a fighter and he didn't convince me with his untouched "0" after beating two old as fuk greats when he should have tried and fight them much earlier. Somewhat like Dariusz Michalczewski for me.

    There are only about 10 worth talking about, so it should be pretty easy to make a list.

    Here:

    Lewis
    Hatton
    Froch

    Colin McMillan was one of the best pure boxers, and Paul Hodkinson one of the best pressure fighters. Both largely forgotten it seems.

    You cant really include Calzaghe and Lewis in an English list as Joe boxed for Wales and Lennox boxed for Canada

    2. Calzaghe

    and......#3 is a tough call between Hamed, Eubank and Hatton. I'd probably go with Eubank, tyhen Hamed, then Hatton, then guys like Benn and such. Another two who deserve a shout out (or at least I think was better than some of the guys who have been mentioned) who haven't been mentioned yet are Lloyd Honeyghan (if you count him as British) and Johnny Nelson.

    Calzahge
    Eubank
    Hamed

    would like to add Lloyd Honeyghan and Michael Watson - amazing win over Nigel Benn and over 2 fights with Eubank at 160 then 168 had the beating of him until that uppercut in the 11th round, could have went on to be the greatest british fighter since ted kid lewis if Eubank had stayed down.

    No its a British list dumbass. The only Brits are the English. Wales, Scotland and Ulster are just colonised by England (for now)
