    I voted for Eubank, but Herol Graham would be my choice if he was included.

    I like Watson's smooth boxing style more than the other guys listed, and any other fighter from the UK that I can think of.

    Read the title and the question he is asking again you dick. It's all opinion based, if he were to ask, 'Who is the greatest British fighter of all time?'...then maybe you would have a point, and even then it is still opinion based. :patsch

    The BBC had a thing about Kirkland during the late 80's early 90's where they screened most of his fights on Sat afternoons. Used to love watching his fights although I do remember a particularly bad KO to Buck Smith. I also remember him losing a European title fight in Italy to a terrible decision (big surprise) where the timekeeper must have been on drugs;

    Why haven`t you included Lloyd Honeyghan? You`ve never heard of him? I`ve marked up Nigel Benn anyway because he was the great puncher,good boxer aswell.

    Lewis is British of course and a excellent fighter but not as many here(in Britain) really saw him as a true through and through Brit,but yes he should`ve still been in the list.
