The best boxer from your hometown?

[palooka]

Likewise, Witter was from Bradford.

It's like Doncastrians trying to claim him as one of their own because he lives here now.

There'll be more doing it if he pulls it off v Gavin.

[mahatma]

ilford- so has to be Nigel but lots of other great fighters as well

[Wake up call]

Fair enough, he used to be on Look North regularly and I always thought he had a Leeds accent. He lived round the corner from a mate of mine when he was at law school.

There's defo some Leeds in his voice but that could be due to the fact that he boxed for a Leeds club as an amateur and trained in Leeds for most of his pro career.

In fact, he was considered to be Leeds' Henry Wharton for much of his career. Even the poster for his fight with Eubank it says Henry Wharton (Leeds) but as I know he lived in York and traveled to Leeds every day to train.

An overlooked Leeds boxer is Joe Fox, who won British crowns at two different weights around the time of the first world war.

Colin McMillan - or was he from Barking?

[palooka]

Colin was from Barking; who's the best from Mayfair or Knightsbridge? Are there any boxers from those areas?

Danny James(Jesse) walked away after becoming dissilusioned with weight making and ticket selling.

He was one of only 5 fighters in 54 fights to give me a count and one of those was a slip

He was very sharp and well schooled like all of the Hunslet boys who came through at that time.

[handsofstone]

I thought Stevie Conway was from Hartlepool?

[tntround1]

Born in Oldham so talent wise has to be Ronnie Heffron. Live in Salford so definitely Jamie Moore

[ourkid1984]

I'm from Southampton and my favourite current boxer is Matty Tew but a lot of that is because he went to the same school as me and he was in the same year as me. Many current young boxers from around the area that could become decent but apart from that in my time watching boxing the only 'Southampton' boxer that got to a decent standard was Matthew Barney.
