One of the best Middleweights ever to lace them up, in my opinion. Tiger may be the best slugger that ever fought. I rate him in the top 20 for his division, the argument for placing him just inside the top 10 is not a weak one.

Probably the best fighter to every come out of his continent.

A great Middleweight Champion IMO, but was vulnerable to a foxy boxer w/ a jab. Joey Giardello, Joey Archer and Emile Griffith come to mind. Tiger beat Giardello of course in their 1965 rematch, but it was a case of Joey's age catching up with him and his legs letting him down as much as anything else.
