    I hate to reply to a thread like this, because i'm doing exactly what I'm about to tell others to do: but don't feed the troll.

    128-1 at one point. Fought like 30 HOFers and a dozen ATG. NEVER knocked out by a man. Stopped only once, at light-heavy by the heat, on his stool, in a fight he was winning.

    Not only GOAT by a country mile, but had more fighting heart than about anyone. Over 200 fights, including being knocked down many times, but never stopped by a punch, ALWAYS got up. That alone puts him top 5 on the "fighting heart" list.

    As a side note to this absurd display of trolling, the closest he was to being stopped by a punch was by Artie Levine, who Sugar said hit him with the hardest punch of his career and if not for a long-count would have had the KO.

    Don't even try.

    I'm sure he already knows this.

    You're (like me) are just feeding him.

    Hah--couldn't resist-and glad I didn't because while looking up Artie Levine I saw that he just died this month! Why isn't there an article about him on ESB yet? May his memory be blessed.
