    Hooray for Len Harvey .

    From what I've read, probably the closest thing England has ever had to Willie Pep.

    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.

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

    How about being born here, learning how to talk and walk here, spending the first 12 years of his life here then choosing to return and fight here as a professional?

    No I am a much bigger fan of Mitchell and Burns, but give the guy a break, he is a pretty weak example of a protected fighter. Murray unlike Rios has cajones and the dignity and proffesionalism to weigh in at the contracted weight.
