The Top 100 Pound for Pound All-Time Greats

I personally wouldn't have had Lewis or Frazier in but I like Lewis so I like him in :yep

I like the Herman shout too, I just wasn't sure since Herman was in a higher tier, we could just get rid of him completely? Seems rash, but not as rash as CB not in at all.

 

Here was my post that initially put forth LaBarba's case...

 

McGrain's got Tier I numbered. He's got a mistake in there with Fitz

over Charles, but hey...whatever.

 

yeah Fitz is tier II. Sorry McG. Needs more Ray Leonard :smoke

 

It may kill us all...:!:

 

We'll all have a jolly good time and everyone will be pleasant! :twisted:

 

It's going to be ****ing awful :cus!

 

1) Sam Langford
2) Harry Greb
3) Ray Robinson
4) Henry Armstrong
5) Bob Fitzsimmons
6) Ezzard Charles
7) Muhammad Ali
8) Benny Leonard

Tier II

Duran
Moore
Pep
Leonard
Joe Gans
Mickey Walker
Packey McFarland
Joe Louis

Something like that.

 

pleasant could well last for about ten minutes once McGrain gets past the top 12

 

Alright, that's a good case for him to at least make the top 100. What would you say his best win is? He's 1-2 against Kid Chocolate and even he didn't make the list. I don't know much about those contenders, but how much is LaBarba separated from Kid? I'm not convinced he's above Basilio, still.

 

Here's how I would have numbered the first 2 tiers of the names provided...

Tier I

1.Robinson
2.Armstrong
3.Harry Greb
4.Langford
5.Ezzard Charles
6.Muhammad Ali
7.Benny Leonard

Tier II

8.Duran
9.Moore
10.Pep
11.Fitzimmons
12. Walker
13.Joe Gans
14.Leonard
15.Packey McFarland
16.Joe Louis

 

Just Fitz. And Leonard behind Ali. Not a big deal, though.

LaBarba and Kid is close to me but LaBarba has the flyweight championship stuff which probably gives him the edge.

 

and yeah, I took Fitz outta the top 10 based on habit Whoops!

 

I don't know how much we'll be able to change the numbering, to be honest. It's McGrain's list after all. Langford will stay at #1, even if a majority disagree. Ezz won't be moving up to #4, even if that's the right, honest, decent thing to do.

We got to sort out the tiers, but I doubt the real specifics of the list will be argued too much.

 

Which kid are you on about
