    Alright lads?

    As thread title says this is a discussion about British title holders over the last 20 years. We've seen many fine champions over the last 2 decades but it's now time to nominate and debate who's really the Best of British.

    It's got nothing to do with world titles and what they did after there reign as British Champion. It's purely down to there resume when defending there title/winning title.

    I gotta rep this lad, from my neck of the woods and brought me one of finest moments as a young boxing fan in his war against Wayne Rigby. His resume is impressive enough for me to mention him as a nominee.

    Pretty impressive IMO. Taylor was a journeyman but was coming off a win against Thobela.

    Kell Brook.

    Got the record for winning the British title outright in the least rounds.
