Real World champions who were British and number 1

[Fenster]

So that kind of sums it all up , for instance Haye v Harrison is for a belt not for a WORLD title .
Boxing has gone down hill , sanctioning bodies taking fees for a belt not fit to hold up you pants !

johhny nelson
colin Mcmillan
paul hodkinson
paul ingle
carl thompson
gavin rees
etc etc

all belt holders but never ever to be called world champions!!

There's currently around 80+ "world" champions. Only 5 or 6 can actually claim to be THE man in their division.

It's been like this for ages and applies to "world" champs everywhere not just Britain.
