    It's a pretty sorry bunch. This is what I feared from British boxing point of view, Froch winning and Haye/Hatton getting destroyed. Froch's performances to me do not hint at long term success. I'm worried about British boxing at world class level over the short-medium term.

    It is entirely possible we'll only have Froch left, and to me he looks like getting whooped sometime soon based on his lack of skill.

    Hope some of these young talents come through.

    I think Khan is a fundamentally better boxer than Froch. That's why I have him above. Although its not a position that I'm very eager to defend.

    Like TFFP said, its a sorry bunch at the moment.

    You don't think Khan can make the transition from a glass jawed hype job?

    By the looks of things, the hopes of British boxing may soon be resting on Khans chin.

    Khan
    Witter

    With 3 of these guys over 30, and Haye is 28/29, i can only see one guy young man who will hopefully be the next be thing in boxing , so lets start getting behind our future star Amir Khan who is still only 22 and getting his world title shot 27 June.

    Roach said Manny will fly in to London to watch Khan at ring side for his title shot in June.

    i agree if i based my p4p rankings purely on boxing abilty khan would be number 2, i based it more on recent achievement
