Re: British pound for pound rankings:
No mention of Andy Lee. Wonder if that's because he didn't make the Top 10, or whether it's because he's Irish? 
Re: British pound for pound rankings:
It's actually a good list. Well done to the BBC.
Re: British pound for pound rankings:
Why is McDonnell above Haskins when they have both done well recently and Haskins has beaten him in a head to head?

I think pretty much everyone thought Yamanaka was No. 1, but it was still a very good win.PredatorHayds wrote:McDonnell beat a guy many considered the World number one in the weight in his last fight.

I rate Yamanaka number one, he's underrated similar to Uchiyama.Horse wrote:I think pretty much everyone thought Yamanaka was No. 1, but it was still a very good win.PredatorHayds wrote:McDonnell beat a guy many considered the World number one in the weight in his last fight.
I know of the US publications had Kameda number one probably as he's based there. He was in most publications Top 5.

As for Haskins---McDonnell has a significantly stronger recent record than him and the loss was years ago, immediately after also losing to Chris Edwards. He's clearly improved and it's shown in his results, not to mention that he beat a guy who later knocked out Haskins.

"Quigg took Kiko Martinez out in two rounds, providing a form guide against Carl Frampton, whom the tough Spaniard took the distance twice."
Incorrect. Poor from the BBC.
