    How would a USA v UK & Ireland contender style match up go?
    All fights on neutral ground.

    Lightweight = Juan Diaz v Amir Khan (USA Ko)
    Light Welter = Nate Campbell v Ricky Hatton (UK Ko)
    Welterweight = Shane Mosely v Kell Brook (USA Ko)
    Light middle = Paul Williams v Ryan Rhodes (USA Ko)
    Middleweight = Kelly Pavlik v John Duddy (USA sd)
    Super middle = Jermaine Taylor v Carl Froch (UK Ko)
    Light heavy = Bernard Hopkins v Joe Calzaghe (UK ud)
    Cruiserweight = Steve Cunningham v Enzo macaranelli (UK sd)
    Heavyweight = Chris Arreola v David Haye (UK Ko)

    I make that a 5-4 win for UK & Ireland :happy
    Just realised JCs officially retired,
    Clinton Woods or Nathan Cleverly v Bhop :nono
    make that 5-4 USA :-(

    that's true.
    But our amateurs did just beat the USA 16-5 over two legs.

    And we'd kill the UK too, in all honesty.

    Hatton>Campbell is questionable (definitely not a ko a win for Hatton)
    I'd rather see Hatton-Judah and I'd pick Judah

    Taylor>Froch

    Sounds like good competition, you haven't included any Irish boxers though?!
