Magri for me also.
Mickey Cantwell only beat one guy with a winning record, so he's done well to get on your list of four.

The flyweight division doesn't get much love in boxing. I thoght that Terry Allen or Jackie Paterson were England's best flyweights.
But, I think now that Sid Smith was the best flyweight ever to come from England

Jackie Brown from Manchester, yes, he should be on the list. My fault. I overlooked him.

Peter Kane of Liverpool deserves a mention.
