Who is the Greatest British fighter of All-Time?

Baz Carey, the guy fights nearly twice a month. None of those mentioned above could fight once a month let alone twice.

 

Fitzsimmons, by a distance

Wilde, Ted 'Kid' Lewis, the other Lewis comfortably make the top 5

 

Well, a lot of the names you mention are more like in the teens to 25 range, with the obvious exception of Lewis and maybe Calzaghe. These guys simply don't fight enough, and/or are too protected to rack up the sort of resume some of the great old timers did. You'll get people who are modernists and see it differently though. Personally my top 10 would be something like

1. Bob Fitzsimmons
2. Jimmy Wilde
3. Ted 'Kid' Lewis
4. Lennox Lewis
5. Jim Driscoll
6. Freddie Welsh
7. Ken Buchanan
8. Benny Lynch
9. Joe Calzaghe
10. Randy Turpin

Then I'd starting looking to some of the more recent names.

 

Calzaghe, Hammed or Lewis in my opinion.

 

Some of the old school: Ted Kid Lewis, Benny Lynch, Jimmy Wilde, Ken Buchanan, Jack Kid Berg, Jim Driscoll, Fitz (if we're claiming him).

 

I mean the top 3 are really no brainers

Bob Fitzsimmons, although it can be disputed he's even British, was the first 3 division world champion winning at middle lightheavy and heavyweight. Obviously an incredible achievement, in days when you didn't have ABC's to pick off

Jimmy Wilde is universally considered the greatest flyweight of all-time, one of the greatest punchers of all time and his resume really speaks for itself. Despite being a tiny man and almost always giving up weight. It is quite possible he'd be a 3 division world champion today given we have straw, jr fly and flyweight

Ted Kid Lewis is another with an amazing resume, over 300 recorded fights, fighting across 6 divisions.

 

1 Bob Fitzsimmons
2 Kid Ted Lewis
3 Jimmy Wilde

 

really it is hamed though. I mean boxing is entertainment at the end of the day, and he got more people intrested in boxing than any other fighter in this country. i became intrested in boxing because of Hamed, i would imagine there are alot of people on here that our the same.

Even if u dont agree u must see my point, i mean Ministry of Sound and Adidad sponserd his fights, i cant imagine that happening again!
