Who is the UK's best boxer of the last 30 years?

Roy Jones had admitted the one fighter he was always wary of facing was Eubank.

Eubank "fighting Roy Jones in his prime would've been suicidal"

Eubank knocked Graham out cold in Brendan Ingle's gym when he was still a novice.

Wrong again, he knocked Graham down once, other than that Herol gave the most hilarious schooling.

He brutally beat Benn into submission, who had beaten Barkley and McClellan.

Eubank took his fair share of punishment in that fight, ****ing blood for days afterwards and swolling his own blood at the end of the fourth round.

He beat Graciano Rocchi hands down in BERLIN.

Good performance i'll give him that

Watson on the night of their second fight looked literally unbeatable, would've beaten anyone basically (walking through power shots without blinking, throwing five-punch power combos all night from all angles!?).

Nope Watson always VERY beatable.

 

Not on that night. As Eubank said, "He had the pace of a lightweight with the strength of a heavyweight."

 

Reported to mods

 

He brutally beat Benn into submission, who had beaten Barkley and McClellan."

Triangle theories MEAN NOTHING.

 

It obviously means something, that Benn was very ****ing good

 

Eubank was the guy coming from New York to the UK to face the hottest thing in boxing at the time.

 

No it doesn't.

G-Man would have CRUCIFIED Eubank.

Barkley would have beat him, too. You even agreed on that in the classics section on this very forum.

 

Honeyghan is really under-appreciated these days. Even though his prime was relatively short, he achieved far more than many on the list. The win over Curry is probably the best single result achieved by a British fighter since Turpin-Robinson, and the secondary names on his resume (Blocker, Rosi, Vaca, Bumphus) are not to be sniffed at.

Starling was a nightmare stylistically for him, and he was shot by the time he fought Breland. In his prime though, he was an absolute beast at welterweight.

 

You're right, honeyghan was finished when Breland and Starling beat him
He gave Rosi a hell of a hiding

 

I agree.
Marlon Starling is actually a great welterweight too, it has to be said.

I rate Honeyghan highly. Definitely greater than Calzaghe, for my money.

 

Starling was tremendous. Beautiful Watson/Winky-esque defense.

 

lewis, honeyghan and hamed in that order.

 

Cant believe Khan even made the list

 

Honeyghan because he had the best win out of all of them and did it in style.Problem is the glory hunting turds who claim Lennox as their own even though he is clearly Canadian won't accept Lloyd as he was born in Jamaica and thems the rules even though Lloyd learned to box in the UK represented Britain as an amateur and pro and paid taxes in this country.
