    65 wins and 46 losses. Again: If Dan Henderson is a journey man, what the hell is that? Your answer, sir?

    So if supreme greatness is defined by the amount hall of famers on your resume, is that all it would take to supplant Robinson's position as the king? Is Robinson even the holder of the most top 10/most hall of fame wins?

    Why go round and round in circles with desperate attention seekers?

    One thing though- I still believe Robinson is definitely at number 1, above the likes of Greb, Langford, Fitz, etc

    Many top greats have corroborated this opinion, not so much for the others

    I know you prefer to watch two men ****in, but another reason why top boxers had losses is because they didn't have youtube or other avenues where they could study their opponent.

    Often, when the entered the ring, it woudl be the first time they've ever seen their opponent.

    Gang affiliated? Like Yakuza owned PRIDE FC that lost all its sponsors and went bankrupt when their gang affilaition became known? Or how about our sicillian friends who own the UFC?
