    Okay thought it was Manchester, I will admit I am wrong unlike you. Not claiming him just saying he was born in the UK

    it is very hard to pick one, mine would look something like

    1) Froch
    2) Brook
    3) Khan
    4) Quigg
    5) Frampton
    6) Selby
    7) DeGale
    8) C Smith
    9) Campbell
    10) Joshua

    Notable Mentions: Fury, Bellew, Murray, Mitchell

    I know 8-10 are relatively untested but I think if you put them in with opponents between 6-10 in their respective divisions tomorrow none of them would look out of place

    1. Froch
    2. Khan
    3. Brook
    4. Frampton
    5. Murray
    6. Quigg
    7. Selby
    8. Degale
    9. McDonnell
    10. Fury

    I should probably have Groves in there. Anthony Joshua and Callam Smith could easily be in but their time will come soon enough.

    But he was born in the UK. Lee was born in the UK, don't know about Hughie, but yeah that is why them to have been included.
    And no, I am not claiming Lee, I don't care where he was born, just wish him well because he is a good fighter and seems to be one of the best people too. The 'claim' to Lee however is stronger as he was born in the UK, so really isn't Ireland trying to 'claim' him.

    but he is 100% irish, and boxed for ireland, and refers to himself as irish. How would ireland be trying to claim him when he considers himself irish?:lol: england is trying to claim him since thats the case

    however if you feel the need to class him as english go ahead

    You really could start an argument in an empty room couldn't you?! I was just saying he is being included in this because he was born in the UK, that's it.
