Lowest standard ever of British Heavyweight Champion

[stujones]

In my lifetime - I would say the ones that pop into my head are.

James Oyelbola (RIP).
Michael Holden
Scott Gammer
Jamie TKV.

With an "honourable" mention to Sam Sexton.

I thought Sexton was better than any of them. A decent boxer and a decent British champion. nathan Gorman was similar standard i think.....and im sure he beats all those listed. But its very subjective, i understand that.

I would agree - the reason why I had Sexton there is mainly cos its a case of who did he beat really?

Honourable brave loses to Dereck Chisora, Hughie Fury and David Price.

But his actual wins are pretty poor - Big Larry O is among his better ones, Martin Rogan? Ok - but he was pushing 40 in those fights.

Ability wise - I think he would beat the other 4, but it could very well be argued that Holden and Jamie TKV have better wins on their resume - with a win over Julius Francis (Holden) and Clarke (TKV).

Scott Gammar - it is pretty poor form that his British title fights involved Cruiserweights that he had beaten before and both shown to be short of domestic class.

Other than Tommy Farr, Henry Cooper Joe Bugner & Lennox Lewis they've all been fair to poor.

X2
Sam vs Nathan would be a pick em if both were in their prime, and both I would pick to beat TKV.

AJ?

His British Championship fight with Dillion Whyte was very decent, and very entertaining.
At the time AJ was demolishing everyone put in front of him like a rock em sock em robot.

I don’t think Nathan Gorman beats any of the guys mentioned. I always thought he was very over rated.

Me neither

Is Gorman retired?

[THEBUTCH]

Gorman was strictly English title level and was never going to win at British title level.

When I think back to the build up to Dubois v Gorman it's absurd that anyone gave Gorman even half a chance.

I did

I did quite under rate Dubois

Still remember him sitting ringside for that Dubois fight before he fought him and going ‘he don’t beat me. Not in a month of Sundays.’

[THEBUTCH]

It was one of the great hype stories !

Not sure that’s true. He fought for it twice against Dubois and Wardley. Other people have won it beating Gary Cornish or Mark Krence (no disrespect to those guys).

[Alba]

What about Gary Cornish? Where does he sit

On the canvas.

[JamesPhilips]

Best Scottish heavy ever?

[Coco]

In the same breath as Gorman

Easy to say they are hopeless as obviously they are out of their depth at top level, but solid area level performers
