No question of partisanship there :wink:

Hold the front page - "Irishman in wanting to see Irishmen fight SHOCKER!"

No mention of British guys picking British fighters or Scousers laddening their top ten with Scousers - sheesh! I'll move swiftly along.
There's a difference between favouring some fighters and then just constructing a list SOLELY on the basis of nationality - that doesn't strike me a true boxing fan to be honest.

Answering the question literally, i.e. to be featured on a Friday Fight Night, I won't say Froch or Haye because they have outgrown that type of show. But, in no particular order, my first 10 would be:

Ryan Rhodes
Matt Macklin
George Groves
John Murray
Nathan Cleverly
Tony Bellew
Tyson Fury
Derek Chisora
Billy Joe Saunders
Frankie Gavin

Most important for me is the quality of the fight.

As an example, whilst he wouldn't normally be THAT high on my list - I think the FNF I am most looking forward to is Booth vs Molitor, so give me a geniune world title fight or a solid EBU fight over watching a specific fighter any time.

But to answer the question I would say - I know the top 3 are VERY unlikely to feature in FNF in the future.

1) Ricky Hatton.
2) Amir Khan
3) David Haye
4) Carl Froch
5) Ryan Rhodes
6) Rendell Munroe
7) Matthew Macklin
8) Enzo Maccrinelli
9) Martin Rogan
10) Audley Harrison (hope to see him on the seat of his pants).

Pryce is fighting Ted Bami tonight at York Hall - eight years after he was stopped by Bami at Cardiff Castle with one second remaining of their six-rounder (shades of Galindez-Kates). Their paths cross again and it should be fascinating.

Couldn't agree more. I think Bami looked more than jaded in Prizefighter and Pryce is coming back to a better weight for him.

Intrigued to see what Pryce has left. Always good value.

I have been following boxing for a long time and this the first forum I have registered on. There are some good debates on here and some real s%^t.

I feel things like this debate is what boxing is all about, not slagging off boxers, promoters are able to look after themselves with the help of thei :box: r lawyers.

My top 10 fighters I would like to see on sky and obviously David Haye is one but this is about younger fighters.

John Murray
Tyson Fury
David Price
Tom Dallas
James Degale
Tony Jeffries (it would be great to see Degale fight him but will the Franks allow it)
Rendall Munroe
Karl Place
Nathan Cleverley
Frankie Gavin

Prizefighter (with the right fighters)

Dallas, Sexton, Chisora, Price, Larry, Towers, Fury, Rogan - should all be matched up. At least Sexton has fought Rogan and Chisora - but how about Maloney getting his heavies to fight each other and not bums?

Carl Frampton
Paul McCloskey
Curtis Woodhouse
Martin Lindsay
Gary Davies
Martin Rogan
Sam Sexton
Willie Casey
James Degale

Always like to write something when somebody says that a topic is closed
I try and be as positve as possibe but Jim Watt really winds me up.
The essential problem is that he is so repetative
In addition the commentary team feel the necessity to talk all the time - they are not on the radio!

These results are REALLY interesting. Hopefully cut out a lot of the bias with my points method but this is pretty suprising and at the same time, not, if that makes sense.
