    Bert Sugar also rates Primo Carnera above the Klitschko brothers. And that is all you need to know.

    (besides, I'm guessing there were no active fighters?)

    Hahahah, too true...

    Britain is so insignificant in boxing yet yanks are so obsessed with the place. Contradictory isn't it really? :)

    **** no! PBF is a top 30 ATG right now if he finishes his career 50-0 he will be a top 15-20 ATG Lewis isn't even a top 50 ATG.:deal

    Well it's ok to be wrong. Don't beat yourself up about it. :deal

    US killer, Lewis :deal, has made a lot of people begrudingly accept his greatness over the years. In the fullness of time, you will see the error of your ways. :deal

    The fact he fought and beat everyone and didn't back down from anyone. Mostly. Floyd still hasn't fought a great fighter at their peak, which is a disgrace.

    Ward and Floyd ... a ducker and a cheat thats what you got. People like Froch and Hatton who Is uppose would be the British equivilent may not have the talent those guys have but they have more guts and put it on the line. Would MOney have come to the UK to face Hatton ? has Ward ever walked into the lions den like Froch has in the US and Denmark ?

    Talent and wins mean a lot but the way you conduct yourself and the courage to put it on the line makes you a legend.

    To summarise Mayweather is unique talent and a great boxer but he will always have a asterix next to his name people like Benn Eubank Froch we know how good they are they took on the best and never backed down .... can you say the same about Yank fighters ??? NO

    I can admit I didn't rate Lewis that highly while he was active I have grown now to appreciate his greatness. With that said he's not in the same class of a PBF.

    No asterisk will be next to his name. Only haters or irrational people like you would even consider it. A legit champ through 5 weights clearly the best fighter of this era and one of the best defensive fighters in the history of the sport. If he finishes his career 50-0 he will rank with the best of the best a top 15-20 ATG which is an elite ATG. ANd there will be nothing people like you can do about it.

    He should not have a zero though should he not trying to change the debate but it's widely though he lost the first Castillo fight DLH a washed up post prime DLH took him very close and some say maybe edged it. The guy is good very good, but never had the balls to put it on the line ducked or "retired" whenever there was a threat to his zero. Even now he supposed to be a belt holder at 154 what does he do CATCHWEIGHT. He will always put the odds in his favour never travelled always his ref. Its hard to judge someone who has everything on there terms.

    How would the Hatton fight have turned out if he was allowed to fight on the inside ?
    How would his career have turned out if teh correct decision had been given in 1st Castillo fight ********* and many of them IMO

    He didn't lose ****. The JLC fight was a close fight PBF won the first 5 rounds going away and got two more later in the fight. It was close and PBF did the right thing and gave him an immediate rematch and beat him easily. What most don't mention about the first JLC fight is one it was PBF's first fight at 135 and two he was injured going into the fight and still beat JLC. You saw what a healthy PBF did in the rematch to JLC didn't you?

    Your second point about Oscar really shows your ridiculous bias. You say close fight and some thought Oscar edged it? :lol::rofl:lol:GTFOH!! PBF should've won that fight by UD it was 8-4 or 9-3 period. The judge who scored the fight for Oscar gave Oscar the 10th round a round in which PBF clearly won that right there should tell you everything you need to know about his card.

    Lastly, it wouldn't have mattered if Hatton's mom was the ref. PBF beats his ass any day of the week. PBF beat Hatton at his own game in that fight. He owned Hatton on the inside and is light years better on the inside than Hatton is. PBF destroyed Hatton and always beats any version of him.:deal Deal with it!

    Yeah he's great isn't he?

    Hey you there, JMM. You are ranked pretty high, want to come up to 147 where I will **** you on the scales?

    Hey Ortiz, you have become a popular fighter, wanna fight me? I won't be much of a sportsman and I'll thump you when you are not yet ready to engage.

    Hey Ricky, fancy coming up to my weight division with my paid off ref? You are a huge draw now.

    Hey Gatti, you have no chance but you do draw a good crowd, want to fight?

    Hey Oscar, looking a bit past it, fancy a fight? It will make shitloads for us both.

    Hey Pacman, I want no part of you, your speed and style might be a challenge.........errrrr your on drugs, HE ON DRUGS!!! And he fights catchweights!

    Hey Canelo, you have become very popular. Fancy a catchweight fight? I know your not capable of dealing with my style but, you know I'll have you drain just in case.
