Who currently in British boxing has absolutely no quit in them (excluding journeymen)? Froch, Derry, Coyle (in the Brizuela fight), Purdy... Must be a fair few more but my minds gone blank!

Yoshohiro Kamegai - game to the bone.
Wally Swift Jnr - he'd throw punches back when he was on the way down.
Naseem Named was a gutsy fighter.

When you think of this thread you automatically think of champs,ex-champs or contenders but some journeymen's courage defies belief,especially when they havent got the mindset of a winner and they know their up against someone more talented and younger than them, too many to mention but i'll go with Peter McDonagh
