British Pound For Pound Consensus Poll

Poncey · Post by **Poncey** » 12 Nov 2007, 21:27

Hi Guys,

Horse's Brit P4P list got me thinking, should we do one as well similar to the Current Scene P4P, only that it applies to British boxers?

I have socks Excel macro that he uses for the Current Scene version, so was thinking o doing this if the interest is enough, and it doesn't take up too much time. Horse, happy for you to do this if you'd prefer.

If you are up for this, let me know on this thread please.

Thanks

Just to let everyone know also, should be updating the Top ten rankings this weekend - been a while. But I keep saying, I'll wait till this fight, then this fight, then this fight etc.

Well, the response has been pretty pish so I'm not gonna bother.

Sorry guys. Needed at least 10-15 people to make this interesting.

I tried.

Sorry, I should have said I am game for this aswell.

Perhaps if you explain what each of us has to do - and how you are formulating them - maybe the interest will pick up.

Give it a bit of a chance.

It's for British fighters only (we can have the Duddy discussion at a later date) Sock, not Bitish posters only.

I'll formulate the rules when I'm back in the UK the end of next week and then see what you guys think.

Keep it real

:P

Everyone votes on their top 35 (maybe less) British fighters and then I update it on a monthly basis with people's votes.

Top 20 makes more sense. Top 35 and you'll get too many crazies

Fck it, yeah everyone post your top 20 British fighters on here and I'll collate it all next weekend.

The boxer must either be British, or have fought for a British title. Commonwealth titles don't count!

Thats about right i'd say.

David Haye at number 2 that's a complete joke. Colin Lynes at 10 ?? Michael Hunter defended the European championship 3 times recently and went 5 rounds with Molitor when frankly mixing in that company is an achievement and I'm not saying he;ll reach those heights again or otherwise but that's no reason for him to fall off the flipping radar.
We're only going back a year for goodness sake.

Then u get people coming on here rating Mcculloch and Harrison who haven't boxed in eons.

That;s the problem with these poll things......should be done like the rankings in boxing news....if you haven't boxed for a year then you shouldn't feature.

That's one of the rules I will be using. If you haven't fought in 365 days, you're off the list!! If you announce your retirement you're also off the list.
