Since he first won it.

Ive thought of a few

WBO
Michael Bentt
Herbie Hide
Henry Akinwande

WBC
Frank Bruno

WBF
Audley Harrison
Johnny Nelson

WBU
Matt Skelton
Johnny Nelson

WBA
Lennox Lewis

IBF
Lennox Lewis

Im pretty confident Simon Harrison still holds the HBF world heavyweight title ;)

I duno if Britain will ever get a fighter who will eclipse Lennox. I wish Haye teh best but he wont get chance to avenge his only defeat so he cant say he beat every guy he fought like Lewis .

bruno but that was before lewis

Ok so I'll punch him... ;D

I think Lennox is the best champion to come form the Uk but was he not born there i am not sure maybe he is not from the uk but lives there.

Brunos the only one to of won the WBC since then

Danny Williams fought for it against Vitali a few years back but he was never going to get anywhere with that one!!

Lennox Lewis was born in East Ham, London, England
which makes him not only a Brit but a cockney to boot;D

Haye is faster and more determined than Vitali. Sure big Bitchsko has power. But so does Haye. And Vitali will feels his power straight away. Haye won't plod round the ring he'll been throwing Hayemakers and be making Vitali think straight away from the first bell. Don't get blinded by how Sam Peter and Juan Carlos Gomez did against Vitali. Haye is better than those 2 put together. He brings something a whole lot new. Vitali is old and declining in speed, skill and stamina. It's ok the groupies saying Vitali can hurt Haye. But you can't hit something that aint there. Haye is fast and will be moving all the time. Speed kills, I actually hardly see Vitali landing on him. He wont be able to cope with how ferocious Haye is and his workrate. And come September the 12th the whole world will see it. While I sit back after seeing it all along.

If Haye was trying to win an online poll he would have a strong chance with all the talk. I think it will play out otherwise in the ring, assuming Vitali actually makes it to the ring without getting injured.

You make it sound so easy.:p

if vitali haye fight collapses i think i will just quit watching boxing & watch tag rubgy or netball or possibly rounders oh wait i mean baseball:o

Haye barely getting hit is wishful thinking imo. Haye has been able a consistent target for the right hand all of his career which Vitali, unlike Wladimir, will throw without hesitating. That's what makes the prognosis for Haye so grim, in my eyes at least. When Haye goes on the attack, his defense goes to the backburner, that's just when he opens up inside, he will need to pick his hands up on the outside if he expects to survive with Vitali. Also, if the fight stretches beyond the first few rounds, it's doubtful that Haye will still be throwing that right hand with such disregard for anything he might leave himself open for. I thought if he was to beat Wlad he was going to have to do it in 6 rounds or less, I think the same with Vitali but the odds of him doing that are dramatically smaller with Vitali.
