    #1 Joe Calzaghe
    #2 Ricky Hatton
    #3 David Haye
    #4 Carl Froch
    #5 Junior Witter
    #6 Jamie Moore
    #7 Enzo Maccarinelli
    #8 Nicky Cook
    #9 Wayne Elcock
    #10 Dean Francis
    #11 Clinton Woods
    #12 Darren Barker
    #13 David Barnes
    #14 Alex Arthur
    #15 Matt Skelton

    Done this using points of British fighters across all divisions and then whacking them in an overall list. I've excluded John Duddy though as he's Irish. He would be around #11/#12 though.

    Agree? Disagree?

    I'd probably have Haye slightly above Hatton atm, that could all change though. Jamie Moore should be lower, Barnes shouldn't be so high and Arthur should still be a bit higher. Same with Woods imo. I'd include Rendall Munroe aswell possibly.

    I felt Lynes warranted a place, having been ripped off in a Euro title defence recently.

    Thaxton and Murray aren't far off either.

    I would prefer Danny Williams but as he has been a tad unpredictable of late (well all the ****ing time :lol:) he misses out.

    Danny is either top 5 or bottom five, rarely in between

    I know you like to shove your **** in your hatton blow up dolls ******* 20 times a day but come on besides shot ***** Kostya who has he beaten ?

    Haye is p4p better than ricky and so is Froch unless the list is based on wbu defences.

    To add what has Woods or Elcock done ?

    Woods won an IBF title and defended it 4 times

    Haye needs to do more to surpass Hatton IMO

    Yes but boasting about Woods and his title is like the cheeky girls claiming they were musicians of the highest calibre based on them having a top 10 single.

    Right ok......

    So beating Glen Johnson and Gonzales is meaningless?

    He may not be your favourite fighter (isn't mine either) but has been a very good servant to British boxing and is still worthy of a high rating on merit.

    Kurt wants Froch above Hatton.

    On that basis alone I'd discount his opinion.

    Beating papa Johnson means nothing in my book as for gonzales I will not go into it.

    I would discount all your posts as all you do is kiss hattons dirty arse.

    p4p Froch is 100% better than Hatton if the list is based on pure boxing skill and ability. If it is based in hugging and wrestling then yes hatton deserves to be no.1.:patsch :nut :hey :yep :twisted: :tong
