Ah... Favourite current UK boxers
I had to change my picks to UK because of the same two guys on my list

British, FUry, AJ, Eubanks, Warrington

Also I say a rerun of Quigg losing the other night, great fight, I hope he can get back in the mix

All time Carl Thompson, Hagler, Colin Jones, Lloyd Honeyghan, Johnny Tapia, but there is a lot more too

All time: Mike Tyson,Oscar De La Hoya,Sugar Ray Robinson and Ali.
All time is hard to pick as there are so many to choose from.

Current British and Irish: Carl Frampton,Tyson Fury,Dillian Whyte and Callum Smith.

All time-Holmes,Chavez Snr,Ray Leonard,Calzaghe ,Eubank Snr

Current British/Irish- Dillain Whyte, DDD, Ricky Burns,can't think of 2 more

All-time - Dempsey, Tyson, Ali, Benn, Leonard
Current UK/Irish - Frampton, Warrington, Dubois, Fury and that's it. Damn, I just could not think (or find as I even went through the boxrec rankings) of one more I would say I particularly like.

Take a look at this lb for lb UK ratings and you realise how poor British boxing is at the moment. We really need the next crop to not implode

We can go back to the days where we didn’t have a heavyweight in the top 20 and our only World champs were just defending at home against pub fighters who were inserted into the rankings at the promoters convenience.

Fav now
Fury
Bjs
Fitzgerald
Conlon
Smith Callum

Steve Collins
Eric Morales
Mike Tyson
Kelly pavlik
Hagler

I don't know that there are 5 U.K. fighters I'm currently a fan of. I loved Andy Lee.

I like Carl Frampton even though his weakness is a glaring one.

I can't say I dislike David Price I guess. He keeps at it best he can in spite of falling well short of his perceived potential. Usually is entertaining one way or the other.

I still like Anthony Joshua. Always been fun, see no reason why he won't continue to be. Win or lose in his upcoming bouts

1) Thomas Hearns - the thousand mile stare as he entered into a ring.
2) Mike Tyson
3) Herol Graham
4) Najib Daho
5) Frank Bruno

I don't follow current British boxing anymore... so I will carry on with my list...

6) Marvin Hagler
7) Dennis Andries
8) Azumah Nelson
9) Julio Cesar Chavez
10) Buster Mathis Jr

In the 90's - I watched loads of Henry Maske on the freeview German channel RTL and Axel Schultz - couldn't say I was a big fan of Maske, it was like watching paint dry but hey ho.. it was all gratis and for nowt!

It’s a slightly strange pairing of questions - both are valid but why ask both (not being provocative, just curious)?

Josh Warrington
Tyson Fury
Michael Fafera
Cam Shaw
George Davey
Past....,
Henry Wharton
Graham Fearn
