    For some reason i thought Lausse was a former champ.

    Otherwise he would have been on my list too replacing who i dont know.

    Perhaps not a contender as such, but Frank Fletcher was fun to watch.

    I'm not gonna bore you with a list of British fighters who you've probabily never heard of.
