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...

Re: Greatest British boxer of all time?
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.

No Hatton what ? you honestly think Ricky Hatton is in some of those great British legends leagues ? you need to learn up about some of those fighters. You will be very impressed, some people are forgetting there history here, Ricky Hatton is a good fighter with a few good wins under his belt. But he needs to get a few big wins before i even mention him amongst those legends.

Re: Greatest British boxer of all time?
I would have thought that 16 straight victories in world title fights earned Hamed a place in the top 10.

Re: Greatest British boxer of all time?
Im not so sure he was one of my favorite fighters, and i've watched most of his fights. And he did have some very good wins abroad, but bad losses to Watson, Eubank, Collins x2, Malinga, hurt his legacy somewhat.He has to be in the list mate!Squeeze him in there and i'll rep you,go on make my day mate
I'll tell you one match up i would have payed to see and thats Julian Jackson vs Nigel Benn, can you imagine how awesome that match up would of been ?
