    Alex Arthur is from Edinburgh mate. Burns is from coatbridge, not quite glasgow but close anough.
    glasgow's best fighters off the top of my head are.

    Jim Watt
    Scott Harrison

    ok fair doo's, but if thats the case then its a shitty list you got. why did you pick Alex Arthur when you could have chose Ken Buchanan?

    It Boxers from my time watching Boxing, so early nineties onwards, i don't feel it's a shitty list at all, can't think how i can improve it to be honest.

    None in my city. But in my country i would say;
    1. Micki Nielsen
    2. Dennis Ceylan
    3. Patrick Nielsen

    And talentwise i could mention Abdul Khattab or Rashid Kaseem. Maybe Mohamed Adel but he has only fought 1 time as a professional.

    None.

    I guess

    George Chuvalo
    Lennox Lewis (Who did fight out of Kitchener and it's kinda near Toronto so I'll claim him)

    ......

    NO ONE ELSE.
