How Many Truly World Class Heavies Has The UK Produced?

Horace Notice was cursing through the British level, and he was the only boxer to beat Anaclet Wamba, future WBC world cruiserweight champion, but I do understand he was unproven to a certain degree.

 

Heavyweights don't require much to be "world class" outside of a sturdy chin and decent pop. Unless you are a unicorn Chris Byrd type. Mason had the tools, took out a not entirely used up Tillis as fast as did Holy the fight before and a reasonable version of Biggs. His effort against Lewis was spirited. I think he was on the cusp but can't argue that he hadn't reached the absolute level.
