Greatest Title Reign of All Time

No-brainer :nut

It was far, far better. Qawi x2 alone are better than anything haye has ever done. Add to that beating Parkey, De Leon & Tillman.

 

I'm surprised no one mentioned Armstrong's reign at WW. The guy defended his championship at an almost inhuman rate, against a high caliber of opponent over the course of a two year period.

 

Chavez also had a great 10 year title reign from 130lbs to 140lbs.

Picked up the WBC title in '84, beat the top guys, unified titles in two divisions, was the man in all 3 divisions, and has something like 23 title defenses before losing the title in '94 to Randall.

 

hard to deny, even if you are a hater

 

RJJ
Joe Calzaghe
Bernard Hopkins


All 3 reigned for over a decade .

 

Jones didn't spend a lot of time @ 160 and 168. Roy's "title reign" @ 175 was one on the biggest jokes played on the boxing world in the history of the sport. Defending a manufactured paper title against civil service workers does not constitute a great title reign.

 

Joe Louis hands down

11 years as champ, 25 title defense's i mean his numbers are mind blowing

 

Tyson actually beat the Man at his weight, and the Man who was before him.

Exactly WHO has Wlad ever beat?

And add to that, during Tyson's title run - guys weren't going rounds with Mike like they are with the young Klit.

 

Joe Louis

 

atsch Fail.

 

Agreed.

I can't believe some of the names discussed here. Slappy? Tyson? Wlad?

 

Joe Calzaghe's reign was the stuff of legends.

 

Shane and Tito ruled 135 and 147 respectively with an iron fist. Their title runs in those divsions were impressive, IMO...

 

dont see why joe louis should get let off with fighting bums and light heavyweights but no one else does. i know there wasnt much else round, but i see it as no great feat.

 

When you dominate your division for nearly twelve years, beating several future HOFers and former champions from the same division,...Whatever. Just go play your Sega or whatever the **** it is now.
