      Nice list...
      In no particular order my 10 would be very similar to this. I’d have to include Naz though and possibly Conteh as well
      I always felt that Naz was more of a "show" than a prizefighter, and that he retired once he finally had a real fight.

      But I'm also not British, so who knows lol. I've just always felt he was like Kiss (they are a show, not a rock band)

        That's pretty sad. The guy lost to Manfredo Jr. in the Am's lmao.

        Real fighters like Calzaghe were beating fighters like Chris Byrd in the Am's.

            It's all a matter of opinion.
            1. Joe Calzaghe
            2. Lennox Lewis
            3. Bob Fitzsimmons
            4. Ken Buchanan
            5. Naseem Hamed
            6. Carl Froch
            7. Nigel Benn
            8. Tyson Fury
            9. Ricky Hatton
            10. David Haye


            It's touch and go with some names, I'd have put AJ name in, but I don't think he's done enough yet plus David Haye's career below HW was very good.

              Lloyd Honeyghan ??? Was going to say Duke mckenzie but realised he was fighting fighters like peter buckley after having previously being world champion.

                    Depends who you ask. We think he's Canadian, the Brits think hes British.

                      How is he from Jamaica? He was born in England and grew up there. Moved to Canada as a teen and moved back to England after a few years.

                      His heritage is Jamaican and his folks were born there but does that mean Mikey Garcia isn't American because his parents are from Mexico? Are you African and not American?
