    I think the list is a bit more down to the fact that the BBC have no real clue on boxing, as has been shown on the numerous occasions they produce these lists, rather than some hidden racist agenda!

    Fair enough if people think Burns should be above Brook. I said people should post their top 10 lists so we can compare. Stop biting my head off.

    It doesn't matter that Khan has fallen off he has achieved FAR more in the ring than Brook, Price, Cleverly...let alone ****ing Frampton. Khan lost in world title fights, one of which was hugely controversial and is still operating at close to the highest level.

    Brook has done what? Beaten domestic level opp. If Brook beats Alexander then we can start talking about where he places in regards to Khan. Price has beaten domestic level opposition too, but with his last fight a level below that as Harrison wouldn't beat Sexton IMO, let alone guys like Chisora.

    Frampton...talented and promising. In a P4P list of our best fighters...:lol: If it's purely off promise then lets chuck Yafai in there too. Groves has a much better claim to being in there than Frampton, Price and other prospects.

    so that I'm clear with your criteria.

    Brook is ranked number 2 in your eyes because he outpointed Bad Magic Matthew Hatton, was very, very lucky against Jones and then KO's an unknown in Saldiva.

    Haye is ranked number 3 in your eyes because he smashed Chisora with a bottle then KO'd him in the ring a few months later!

    Then you have Burns who defeated, handidly, an ex world champ and then ***** slapped Mitchell in a manner that you expect a world class fighter to do to a domestically level opponent.
