    I wouldn't put Wilder in there because he is good for this HW division but he isn't a great fighter overall. There are tons of smaller fighters better than him. I would say it's between Jacobs and Garcia. Maybe jermall charlo but he is a little less proven. Also, Bradley could be in there too but he needs to fight again to prove that he still has it.

    Like I said, you put your top 5 down, one of the Brits put their top 5 down and we'll chew the fat.

    Ward and Crawford would be the top two if they were British, so America wins in that department. If you judged the best fighter in every division Britain would probably come out on top (Haven't looked, but can't think of many top American's in the lighter weights, Gary Russell Jr? Oscar Valdez? However, they're in Frampton, SElby and Quigg's division, so it would be close.

    Top 5 Brits without giving it much thought

    Brook
    Frampton
    DeGale
    Selby
    Khan

    Billy Joe
    Eubank Jr
    J.McDonnell
    Flanagan
    Quigg

    AJ
    T.Fury
    Yafai
    C.Smith
    Haskins

    Burns
    Crolla
    Bellew
    Haye
    L.Walsh

    Murray
    Whyte
    L.Smith
    S.Smith
    L.Williams

    Hang on , am I missing something or are you putting 25 names down?
    We're looking for top 5. Like I said at the start, it depends how you work it out as to what result you want, and the one fighter in each division theory is evidence of that.
    The reason we're doing top 5 is because that is what @Batman said.

    Yeah and we saw how I negotiated the bet between Primo and Master.

    Good stuff guys. Off the top I wouldn't have Wilder anywhere near a top five. Santa Cruz should skate by immigration and customs for me . He debuted in the U.S, lives in the U.S and came up in 'murica jr Olympics since he was a teenager. Not sure he cracks top 5 though... could be scramble of

    Crawford
    Ward
    Garcia
    Santa Cruz
    Lara? Hey he just got his citizenship and lives in Texas of all places

    Jermall Charlo
    Thurman
    Spence jr
    Russell Jr
    Andrade
    Derevyanchenko..hey I see a flag so we're taking him!

    You may as well have Golovkin and Kovalev too as they both train, live and are contracted to American promoters/networks.
