Who was the greatest from Philly? Frazier? Hopkins? Someone else?
Who's the greatest fighter from LA? Or the whole of California?
Who's the greatest from YOUR city?
You get it, lets hear your opinions?
From the city of Manchester, it has to be Ricky Hatton, unless of course, Amir Khan goes on to have a excellent WW run in the coming years, which would include a showdown against Mayweather or Pac.
Other fighters include: Tyson Fury, John Murray, Hatton's brother Matthew.

Great fighter, bis biggest moment was defeating Froch to win the super six tournament, although he did get home advantage throughout the tournament. Career has suffered in recent years due to inactivity.
Arthur Abraham was in Carson, Froch was in New Jersey.
However, Ward should be back in action sometime in 2015. Hopefully he gets with Roc Nation. Anything is better than where he is at.
From Philly? Quite a few. Frazier, Liston, Loughran, Harold Johnson, Ike Williams etc. great fighting traditions in philly.
Don't know too much about LA.
My home city of Liverpool, I would say John Conteh & Dick Tiger would be the standout names. Jimmy Wilde fought in Liverpool a lot, so I'll lay a claim to one of the greatest British fighters ever.
Andre Ward. Oakland California.
