as a brit i want to discuss the greatest p4p british boxers ever.
this video has the top 10.
I would place calzaghe and fury and lewis top 3. can you yanks spare some time to add your own choices. sorry if this thread has been done before but i want to hear queeny's best of british and willie pep, billeau and the rest.

Ted kid Lewis, jimmy wilde, Randy Turpin, Ken Buchanan, John conteh, Barry mcguigan, Eubank, benn, Watson, Lewis, hamed, Hatton, calzhage, Froch, aj and fury.

Those are the main names. From them I’d remove the 3 90s middles, Turpin, mcguigan for shining brightly but not long enough. Remove conteh. That leaves ten think. I’d order

calzaghe
lennox
wilde
kid Lewis
froch
hamed
buchanan
hatton
aj
fury

There’s a few I’ve prob missed. Howard Winstone maybe?

great post my friend. I thought for a minute you meant ray winstone the movie star! he was a very good boxer too.
Howard Winstone i will have to research. Would you put calzaghe number one? I think queeny likes calzaghe!

- - Jimmy Wilde prob the best.

Chris vs Nigel most entertaining fights.

SuperJoe, Dumb Froch, and especially AJ deliver.

Not the best, but Sir’enery turning out young Clay’s lights can’t be beat…

Jackie kid berg was a great fighter too. Also Owen Moran

love john conteh, my dad had a pint with him in the seventies and he said conteh was the kindest celebrity he ever met. i have been a fan ever since the superstars series in the 70s and eighties.

Conteh was a great fighter and so talented. He kind of underachieved a bit really. Won the title. Couple of decent defences against Lopez etc but felt he was better than his career suggests. Views?
