      Josh? Really? He seems pretty good to me bud but I've only watched him like twice. What makes you reckon he's not as good as folks say?

        Anthony Joshua, Lennox Lewis, Chris Eubank, Nigel benn, Frank Bruno, Amir Khan and Naseem Hamed. None of them are british. Nigerian, Caribbean, Yemeni and Pakistani.

            Kell Brook maybe? He was ranked P4P by Ring at one point. Only has the one notable win vs Porter, a very close fight.

            Dillian Whyte is another one, his greatest achievement is winning a British title yet some people believe he’s a top 3 HW and that he is being “avoided”.

            Big Eubank fan but in reality was he ever a true world champion. The WBO was hardly unquestionably legitimate in the 90’s and he never showed all that much interest in fighting Roy, Toney, Nunn etc.

              Josh Taylor is class, proved his worth against Prograis, Baranchyk and Postol.(arguably Crawford’s best win)

              If you think Taylor is a “hypejob” you’re either bias or delusional. I’ve been ****ing the Taylor from on here for a while. Him and Fury are our only two elite fighters.

                Exactly. And the funny thing is, over the years I've been reading on here from racist whites who had always pointed out their origin whenever they failed. So I agree with the racists.

                  He’s excellent bro. I remember watching Josh as an amateur, he can box, fight, has good punch variation, good footwork, possibly our best fighter IMO.

                    brook came to america and just piped a rugged guy who is a tough fight for pretty much any1 in the division i would say and took his title, not bad

                    he messed himself up badly with his leg and ggg after that, bad choices

                      If you’re an American, the irony in that statement is hilarious.

                      How many Native American boxing champions are there again?
