Which current overseas fighter do you wish was British?

[deadpan]

Triple G is too badass to be a Brit, it's Tim Bradley for me. He's a class act and I root for him anyway but it'd be great if he was home grown.

[Counter-puncher]

I'd say overall Bradley is one of the easiest boxers in the world to like as a person so that's a good call.

[handsofstone]

Roman Gonzalez is a dude in and out the ring

Andy Lee being British would save Horse some hard graft each month.

Imagine Scotland had gained independence last year, I'd have given him hell every time he tried to call Burns British!

[davie]

Klitschko (so obviously both Klitschko)

It's a two for one deal and basically would mean the UK had dominated the greatest division for over 2 decades

Some of the current scene can't handle the fact europe has dominated the heavyweights, imagine the UK had single handidly dominated it with Lewis then the Klitschkos

They would need to change their names to Norman and Gary though

[jamesmcdonnell]

GGG - a no brainer.

Hahaha - norman and gary.

How about Steve and Douglas?

Dafuq!?

Bradley is a good shout.

Loma & Gonzalez are ridiculously talented so maybe one of those 2.

This comment has made me think. Burns is on his way out which would leave no Scottish boxers in Horse's coveted top 30. Are there many pushing for a place?

Are we not supposed to support a boxer if they are not british, or is just that we are not supposed to support them as much?

Whats the limit of support i can show for a non-brit boxer, can i shout at the screen to spur them on, or do i remain tight lipped and nod nonchalantly in approval, true brit style?

For most, there's an extra sense of pride seeing success from your own country or even better, your home town/city/area. Nothing wrong with that at all.

You're not allowed to masturbate to posters of them unless they are British, I'm pretty sure that's the rule.

Personally I wish some of my favourite fighters were British purely so I could afford to watch them fight more often.

[dr_devious]

Kovalev or GGG

Aaaaaah, I didn't get that memo. I'm suddenly feeling some Daniel Zaragoza/Nicolai Valuev guilt.....

No

Well except from the shark

[Bodyshot3]

Joseph Parker....so AJ had a good, up-and-coming domestic rival to keep him right on his toes and we get a rivalry.
Most Kiwis have a Scottish great-granny somewhere on the family tree and Joseph apparently has a bit of English in the background.
Get the boy over here!

None as they'd stop doing what they are doing and start cherry-picking the softest fruit on the tree and beating their gums like ten men on youtube snd twitter.

Adrien McBroner

[Boxing Prospect]

Naoya or Bivol

[Reece_D]

Has to be GGG. I know hes big in the US now but imagine him being British with the Matchroom hype.

That's hardly an exclusively British thing to do, pretty sure boxers all over the world do it.
