Balls
Lennox Lewis is the only one that really comes to my mind, but I get a feeling I'm forgetting someone.
Joe Calzaghe comes to mind...
I thought of Calzaghe. I suppose, if you go by the numbers. Surely Lewis is a much bigger name. With tougher opposition over the long haul.
By his record,it has to be Calzaghe!Though if the question was"Greatest british boxer/fighter of all time"i would say Nigel Benn.God,that guy was and still is a hero of my in the boxing game.There dont make them like Benn anymore.
Not in any order my top 10.
Lennox Lewis
Joe Calzaghe
Jimmy Wilde
Freddy Welsh
Jim Driscoll
Bob Fitzsimmons
Ted Lewis
Ken Buchanan
Randy Turpin
Jack Berg
Guys like John Conteh, Nigel Benn, Chris Eubank, Lloyd Honeyghan, Naseem Hamed, deserve a mention aswell.
To me it's Lennox hands down! Then, and this may seem unfair but his one huge achievement surpasses so many other brits great careers, Randy Turpin.
Henry Cooper from the old timer here.

personnally i think Ken Buchannen is the greatest, Too young to have seen him first hand, but the videos show the quality. Robbed in the duran fight, shame he doesn't have the same class now as he did i the ring.
