In any order Jim Driscoll is probably the greatest Brit ever Lennox Lewis Jimmy Wilde Ruby Robert Fitzsimmons Ted Kid Lewis All are ATGs obviously Please don't mention Wayne McCullough, Jimmy McLarnin or Carl Frampton because they're from Northern Ireland, which is part of the U.K., not the island of Britain.
Ruby Robert Fitzsimmons was born and reared in Cornwall, which is in England. That makes him British even though he eventually changed his nationality.
Top 20 featherweight? That's where you have him? Most historians have him amongst their top 5 feathers EVER. Plus you've Lloyd Honeyghan amongst others on your list and no Driscoll. Ok, if you say so.
Every top 10 should have Freddie Welsh, Jim Driscoll and Kid Berg. You seriously need to lose Eubank and Nelson from your list.
You trolling? Welsh is easily a top 10 lightweight. Jackie Kid Berg was Jewish I think. Moved from London to the states where he was trained by Ray Arcel.
He's a complete waste of time what he knows about boxing could be written on a pin head. Judah Bergman, from Whitechapel London.
Welsh has got a brilliant resume. He fought the best of the best. And he did win the lightweight world title defending it twice before being dethroned by Benny Leonard. He has wins against Battling Nelson, Ad Wolgast, Benny Leonard, Willie Ritchie, Jim Driscoll and two draws with Packey McFarland. And there will be more names I've missed.
But he wasn't from a colony. He was from Cornwall. Chisora, Akinwande and Hide have nothing to do with this discussion.
