    Good one :lol:

    Seriously though, if Lennox says he is Brit, then i guess it's fair to call him a Brit.

    Lewis
    Eubank
    Benn
    Hamed
    Hatton
    Calslappy

    In that order. I rate guys higher for actually taking risks in their prime, regardless of whether they won or lost. This is why Calslappy is bottom of my list, had he taken the fights he should have taken then he wouldn't even be considered.

    Oh and yes, Ken Buchanan should be on this list. If he were then he'd be right behind Lewis.

    Hatton would be above Hamed and probably Eubank - whilst on a level with Benn.

    Eubank, other than Benn had very little on his resume, defending the WBO for all it was worth, whilst Hamed had a very short prime.

    It could be said that Hatton spent too much of his prime in the WBU comfort zone, but still took it upon himself to seek greater challenges abroad. For that he must be given credit.

    In truth, he ain't far behind Calzaghe. Had he beaten Mayweather he would have been up with, if not above Lennox Lewis.
