    Oh man,you simply must see his British title fight against Rocky Kelly.I was there and it's the closest thing to bear baiting I've ever seen in the ring. The guy was a boxing genius. He also made Duran look silly which was before Duran went on to win the world light middle title

    Herol Graham for me, I would consider Driscoll at least a title holder (1912 to 13) as recognized by both the UK and IBU. And Owen Moran was a claimant (1905 to 07) and considered World Champion by the NSC in 1907.

    Also just a side note: You cannot (pretty much ever) have an undisputed Champion, as he would have no challengers, as no one, by definition, would dispute his claim of being undisputed......
