Where does Froch stand in Best British SMW now?

It does depend on how you wish to judge it, but if you are going on quality of opposition and when they fought (i.e. early career, prime, late career) there is a strong argument for putting Froch number 1.

 

It will be case closed if he beats Johnson and Ward:deal

 

Number 2 fr me tbh. its a hard one, i cant decide who i would rank 1st

G

 

x 2 , this really gets to me collins is as british as joe frazier for ****'s sake

 

What does it actually matter? Collins gets lumped together with Benn & Eubank just like Tom comes with Jerry. Just ignore the word British.

 

Collins fought McCallum, Johnson, Pyatt, Thornton, Watts, kalumbay- not just Benn and Eubank and of course he was Irish.

 

Ive got Calzaghe as clear number 1, after that it gets more difficult.

I would put Benn number 2, Froch 3, Eubank 4 and Collins 5.

Its tough though.

As people say though if Froch beats Johnson and Ward he has to go clear number 2 and maybe even overtake Calzaghe!

 

I dont put Joe C over Benn no way. Joe beat Eubank when his heart had gone. Im not Bashing Joe I just dont see him beating Benn. Joes best win was Kessler followed by hopkins, I think Joe has the weekest record out of the 5 but the did own all the straps. Froch has the Benn any time any place any were mentality which you have to give him props for.

What a great thread

Imo
Benn
Froch
Joe C
Eubank
Collins

I wonder were Michael Watson would have been on this list if his career had not been cut so short ?
