    Haven't done one of these for a while - mainly 'cos they're too hard and you end up leaving people out!

    Pretty much with DSS really - though Barry Michael is UK born and therefore omitted, plus a couple of positional changes.

    So perhaps:

    1. Dave Sands
    2. Les Darcy
    3. Jeff Fenech
    4. Lionel Rose
    5. Jimmy Carruthers
    6. Young Griffo
    7. Jeff Harding
    8. Hector Thompson
    9. Tony Mundine
    10. Vic Patrick

    ...Young Griffo has got to be the hardest to 'grade' for so many reasons.

    ...and apologies to Barnes, Katsidis and Ramon.

    ...not to mention the very-much-Australian though not born here types like Fammo, Michael, Ellis, Matiolli and Ferreri.

    ...and the more recently Austalianized Kostya & Vic.

    ...and the really oldies whom I don't know enough about.

    ...and anyone else I've just plain forgotten.

    HOW ABOUT PAUL BRIGGS ??? The Tomasz Adamek formline has held strong apart from a loss to the undefeated Chad Dawson......

    As this is P4P I'd have to rate the lighter fighters like Rose, Fenech and Griffo above Sands.

    1. Young Griffo
    2. Les Darcy
    3. Jeff Fenech
    4. Lionel Rose
    5. Dave Sands
    6. Anthony Mundine
    7. Paul Briggs
    8. Tony Mundine
    9. Vic Patrick
    10. Jimmy Carruthers
