    Talent wise, probably Kirkland Laing. Though Herol Graham is up there also.

    I wouldn't say he was the best not to win a world title but Colin Jones has to be up there .

    Jim Driscoll and Owen Moran never "offically" won a world title. You have your answer right there.

    Depends what you calla world title. You Only Lewis, Haye and Calzaghe have been world champions in the past 10-15 years. Unified Undisputed Champions.

    Would Hatton, Cook, Macceranelli, Woods, Rees, Arthur, Witter have been world champions 30 years ago, i doubt it some how. You could say even Eubank, Benn and Collins might not have been as Toney and Jones Jnr were around at the time.

  12. From the fighters I've actually seen fight I'd have to go with Herol Graham. I only remember seeing a couple of Kirkland Laing fights but he was immensely talented.
