Re: foreign champs with most title wins over brits
I know a Irish people get upset when Irish fighters like, Mike McCallum and Steve Collins get grouped in as British, but personally I just see anyone from the British Isles as our home nations fighters.

Usyk is now 8-0 again British fighters
Although he’s beaten 3 of them twice and Chisora fight was not a world title fight.
