    Obviously in Britain. They don't have to be headed somewhere, they don't have to be pegged as some next superstar, just a proper lad who you've took a shine to.

    To be honest, my only gripes are if they've won or contended for world titles or if they're clearly around the best in their division. So for example, does anyone think of Okolie as domestic level anymore? I don't. Or Callum Johnson? That sort of thing.

    Much appreciated.

    So like, my favourite guys at British level right now are Robbie Davis Jr, Connor Benn and Lewis Ritson. What are yours?

    Isn't domestic level the same as British level? Am I missing something?

    Off the top of my head, probably Liam Smith. Gotta like someone who genuinely smiles when taking clean shots. Underrated, good boxer and would have gone a lot further if he had any real power.

    Or did you say you don’t want people who have been at that level. Not having a go but you’re wording is a bit confusing as I think Nurological was trying to get at.

    Jason Welborn. I've been to 15 or 16 of Jason's fights as he's a local lad. Always gives everything he's got. Never in a bad fight and hugely exciting to watch, especially in a small hall with the crowd blistering the paint.
    He's also a soft spoken, modest and gentle guy away from the ring .

    Fitzgerald is a domestic legend forever for beating fowler

    Zelfa Barrett, Sam Eggington and Richard Riakporhe (in this order).

    I didn't include Dubois as he will be the undisputed HW champion one day.

    Not at all. Not a fan of either tbh. Just getting very tiresome reading the same old shite. You'd think fowler was Ian Brady the way people go on.

    You must follow him elsewhere because I very rarely see him mentioned on here
