Who were the top 10 Brit fighters of all time and how well would they do if active in today`s game?

Come on man, the vulnerabilities in Naz had been exposed long before the Barrera fight - Going life and death with a faded Kevin Kelley and later the glass chinned Augie Sanchez, being outboxed by Medina, floored by Alicea, looked awful against Wayne McCullough and had to hit and hold his way to victory over Cesar Soto. Was it hand problems and poor training camps that caused those bad performances ??

In all of the above his incredible punching power bailed him out but once when he eventually got in the ring with a truly elite fighter he got schooled, simple as.
Agree with you though that he beats Frampton and Warrington.

 

Calzaghe would clean out 168lb, he'd be way too quick for Clenelo.

 

If we're going to slate every fighter that struggled with an opponent then there should be no such thing as 'ATG' s' and 'PFP' Kings as every fighter that ever lived with a few exceptions had glaring vulnerabilities. And no, I don't have a hard on for Hamed, I was more arguing the case that the very best Hamed would have too much for Warrington and Frampton and, all the issues he had with hand injuries and surgeries and the dropping of a 5th of his body weight 8 weeks before the Barrera fight is all well documented and not something I snatched out of thin air.

 

Imagine it in the later rounds where Calzaghe is as still relentless as he was earlier, dare I say even finding another gear. The 168ers of today are getting off lightly, there's nobody around who could do what Joe did.

 

lol! Hamed and Kelly were both more reckless in that fight than Galahad was v Warrington, he spoiled and would have spoiled v Naz too.

 

Yeh but Naz would have Ko`d him in under 6 rounds

 

You started on the sauce early Mark?

 

Howard Winstone would have boxed the ears off Warrington.

 

I love Joshy Warrington too, but aye, I agree. Naz would of schooled him. Josh isn't a great boxer but he has a phenomenal heart, engine and chin.

7. Ken

 

He never faced pressure, combos and a high guard like Warrington`s.

 

What weight would Bob Fitzsimmons do well at in today`s game?

 

Engine? Warrington throws far more punches per round than Naz used to and he throws more combo`s.

 

I'd say he would be best suited at super middle

 

Well, he did fight Vicente Saldivar three times...
