@Mike Cannon @scartissue surprised neither of you have mentioned one of my favourites,the fantastic Mark Kaylor

 

Great pick, as would be some of his contemporaries such as Roy Gumbs and James Cook. Also, I'm surprised at myself for leaving out Dick Turpin.

 

Also Errol Christie

 

Doh !!!!!
Sorry Noel, what a glaring omission, not least because I was at most of his big fights, including Gumbs, and Christie, what's more I backed him heavily in the Christie brawl, obvs I know 2 of your favs, the aforementioned Kaylor, and Honeygan, who would be the next 3 in your top 5 just out of interest mind.
stay safe buddy, chat soon.
Mike.

 

No problem Mike,my next 3 would be
Chris Finnegan
Kevin Finnegan
Herol Graham
But i would also like to mention Wally Swift Jnr (loved him)

 

Thanks Noel.
Mine looks like this :
Conteh
Buchanan
Green
Jones
and K Finnegan, saw him box rings around Bouttier to win Euro at a cinema in East London about 4am, equally impressive on the same bill, Stracey bullied and stopped the very strong and solid Menentery in 7 , so a win double over the French.
stay safe buddy, chat soon.

Some great names there Mike.I suppose its an age thing but i cant remember the last British fighter i really cared for.From the period mid 60`s to early nineties there were loads.Oh well nostalgia is comforting

Pat Barrett...decent fighter.

Mark Kaylor
