    That would be equally as daft, but, i imagine people judge him based on all of his fights and they see the skills he has and imagine how he would fare against other top fighters he has yet to face.

    How can you even suggest Campbell, don't get me wrong he is a fantastic fighter but nowhere neat the technical best in the UK he throws too many arm shots.

    You ask for a opionion you have it. His balance, range, half steps faints ect he hardly wastes anything so how he throws to many arm shots?

    He hardly takes anything in return very good technically

    Selby no.1

    Then Brook

    Defo agree BJS is too fat. No boxer needs to be fleshy like that at the middle weight. He could drop a weight or two then have some power.

    Groves has nice straight punches and moves well. Not full package tho.

    Mitchell can look outstanding on his night

    Groves lost any chance of being in tht list after his awful display againts Jack.

    Looks like he has forgot how to set up any sort of attack since first froch fight
