1. Ken Buchanan
2. Jimmy Wilde
3. Lennox Lewis
Jhon Murray has to be number one. He is the British boxer with the most undefeated fights. He was cheated by Mitchell and Rios. They didnt play fair. The other guys he fought were amasing opponents and he destroyed them all. What a fighter.
I cant tell if you are being ironic what with your wit being as sharp as a spoon and all that, but actually Rios coming in way over weight was clearly unfair.Quote:

About time somebody mentioned Audley in their top three. Although when it comes to British boxers I'm not going to argue with Scrap.Quote:
