there's a good 7 or 8 british hws who could be said already to be euro level or higher, but then it drops pretty suddenly and there isnt much to fill the 10th spot tbh. prob be one of adeleye, fisher, or itauma
would like to see tommy welch step it up. there are a lot of interesting potential fights for guys in the 10-20 range

It seems like a top ten list that lacks much imagination. I mean if it’s just a subjective list by a boxing publication, why even rank Fury until he proves he’s not completely shot? Same for Chisora really. It’s fairly obvious Joshua has the form. Dubois is fresh and fairly dangerous. Who knows how good Frazer Clarke is and where he should be ranked. He might be beaten and retired in no time at all at his age.

certainly has the tide in his favour in terms of form doesn't heDeserter wrote: ↑28 Mar 2024, 12:39DDD would smash current day version of Dillian IMOSeanBrennan wrote: ↑28 Mar 2024, 12:00 another good edition this week, just reading it now it's come through my letterbox, via the cat trying to have a chew.
They've done their 10 count, of their top 10 HWs in Britain as follows:
1 Tyson
2 AJ
3 Joe Joyce
4 Dillian
5 DDD
6 Fabio
7 Frazer
8 Chisora
9 Dacres
10 Adeleye
Thoughts? I don't think I'd have Adeleye as number 10, he'd not make top 10 for me esp after the Sokolowski showing.
And WBA have sanctioned Charr-Pulev! Blimey.
Really enjoyable article by Miles Temperton in this week, shows a picture of welterweight greats from days of old, in the 1930s and the story behind the fighters. Reminds you how hard the fights used to be, with it referring to a champion in the photo who had won the title in 1894 over 20 rounds!
