    Haha, imagine how you've just made Lee Haskins feel for being the (1) on Napa's record.

    Just occurred to me, when they announce Napa and read his record do they say 'and 1 inside the distance' or do they say 'and 1 where some poor fella retired due to injury and is now haunted by the fact he didnt see the last bell with Ian Napa'

    i admit it. i invented the 18 month rule just so i could relegate hatton to number 3.

    but seriously, when trying to come up with p4p lists without any timelimits its hard to know where to draw the line.

    i mean, if you are looking at the whole career of active british boxers i'd probably end up with danny williams and howard eastman in my top 5.

    Exactly the point I was making. You really can't justify that sort of decision making process, without having Hopkins and De La Hoya as sure top 3 p4p fighters, which is clearly absurd

    you joking me mate,he beat eastman much more comfortably than the scorecards suggest,he also took apart bonsante and won a close decision against smichet,to call it a dodgy decision is dodgy in itself.
    but he's irish so it don't make no difference to your list.
