Don't get me wrong. I support British boxing. I'm very much an anglophile.... Khan however is not a "true" Brit.
What a ****. Basically because he isn't white?? What a load of bollocks. Khan is very much British.
Better boxer for sure, much more solid. Khan has elite speed though.
You forgot elite level neck!!!!!!!
Khan is a few steps above Selby and also Anthony Joshua and I'm I'm also going to throw Brook in there too until he has more on his resume to show for himself.
I'd say he's #3 at the moment.
1)Froch
2)Brook
3)Khan
4)Frampton
5)Degale.
:boxing:
Brook can't be above Khan, look at the opponents they've faced and the performances they've put in. Are we going to forget he schooled a top 10 welterweight and has destroyed the likes of Judah and Paulie in the past and made Collazo look like a bum? Come on now.
Just don't see it.
Decent fighter but that's it.
Little skills, poor defense, not much power or any general talent.
I've not seen his fight from last night so I don't know how he performed but I doubt he keeps his belt long unless he holds it hostage.
But but Jim Watt said he's class and gave a good "urrrghhhahhh" when he landed a punch :ugh: :theyareon
Froch, Brook, Khan, Frampton, Fury in roughly that order. No way Khan not a top 5 UK fighter. Could be argued that he is even #2.
Selby and Joshua are ridiculous picks for top 5 UK. Even top 10 is not a certainty for either, but idk enough UK fighters to be sure of that. I'd have Groves, DeGale and Quigg in there but idk who fills out the last two spots in the 6-10 range.
Then it really only leaves khan or possible cotto rematch for mw belt
I don't think even Cotto is an option.
He's a distant second but according to him he has a verbal agreement with Canelo and that makes more sense. Plus the Rocnation/Haymon thing.
Everything points to Amir Khan.
Not just dan_cov, but also iron hamza.
Why? Selby honestly seemed like the goods to me since, the Stephen Smith fight. What is missing?

DeGale
Brook
Frampton
Selby
Joshua
All better
even Froch if he's gonna keep fighting.
Out of all those names, Froch is the only one with an arguably better P4P resume than Khan... and yet you didn't include Froch on your list?
Not happening.
Floyd's not waiting until the end of July to announce his last fight.

So. When will a choice of next for @FloydMayweather be made and announced? BY MID JUNE an impeccable source tells me— Michael Woods (@Woodsy1069) May 30, 2015
Lee Selby lol seriously that kids among the worst world champions in the sports history along with Sam Soliman.
That is how easy it is to win a 'world title' these days.
I'd put Jeff Lacy and Tavouris Cloud up there also.

If thurman looks impressive vs collazo, then I can see him doing a quick 2 month turnaround and fight floyd...
Brook, your probably right
