British boxing now relying on David Haye?

Its a shame but we probably are.

And its an even bigger shame for me as im not a fan.

I think im going to have to search the tree to see if i have any Ukranian or Russian blood in me.

 

Its a dangerously scary state of affairs.

 

Nothing wrong with Haye. He's the best, most skilled British champion currently bar none!!!!

 

Alex Arthur anyone?

 

Dont forget the Olympic boys will be turning pro.
There is always the up and coming prospects to look out for.

 

Khan was never gonna be a big name in british boxing anyway hehe

 

What ever happened to Graham Earl?His war with Katsidis wll be remembered forever,then he got erased by Khan.What did he do since then?

 

The cupboard is pretty bare to say the least

Once Calzaghe is gone, only Haye and Froch will be world class. Hatton barely, but he'll be done soon too.

There are a few prospects around, but nobody that stands out immensely as potential world class. All eyes must be on the amateurs, DeGale, Gavin and BJ Saunders.

 

What about Carl Froch?

 

Graham Earl was/is another typical SN fighter. He got given a gift vs Bobby Vanzie and did the same in there rematch. He was good enough for the domestic scene beating up the Murrays and Bennetts of this world but he was never going to be world class. He did surprise me with the cojones he showed vs Katsidis but he was way in over his head. Katsidis tore his head off in a very entertaining scrap. Since the Khan fight when he was wiped out ina round i dont think his fought since.

 

He'll be made to look like an amateur once he faces someone with skill, why has Hennessey took over 6 years to get him WBC mandatry?

 

Seems you mainly listed current or former Warren fighters.

What about John Murray, Jamie Moore, Carl Froch(as mentioned above), Paul Appleby, Kenny Anderson(looks a great prospect), Colin Lynes, David Barnes, Ajose Olusegun(now British citizen), Ian Napa, Rendall Munroe, Rhodes.........

Okay you get the picture, all of them bar Froch and possibly Appleby and Anderson depending on what they turn out to be won't reach World title level. But most of them are better than Earl, Lockett, those heavyweights and so on.

Haye will probably be British boxings main man, followed by Froch and then Maccarinelli, a couple more will pick up World titles such as Cook has be never be the man in their division.
