Rank these recent British fighters in order of their greatness
(Top British fighers who have been active in the last 5 years in order of greatest to least greatest)
Danny Williams
David Haye
Enzo Maccarenelli
Clinton Woods
Joe Calzaghe
Carl Froch
Howard Eastman
Ricky Hatton
Junior Witter
Amir Khan
(if I have missed anyone out you feel should be on the list then please say and if worthy will be added to the list)
(I was thinking of including Audley Harrison but this list should be about greatness proved not potential or talent - so Harrison cannot be classed as one of Britains top fighters - because he had all the tools - but lacked something within - and is a failure)

Interesting for you probably, especially with Williams at #3 but that fight against Tyson was just great. Haye yet to achieve any kind of superb performance against top guy and I'm not too keen on the bottom five at all.

Nah
Pryce and Gavin Rees - are not in the top - Rees did win WBA honuors - bit overall he is a journeyman
Nathan Cleverly needs to prove and achieve more first but is a good prospect
