I don't put Tunney in my top 10 atg list either.. Anyways, my point was that people should only put top 10 atg's that they've actually witnessed, this isn't a list for boxers with the best resumes. I have to admit that the Dempsey roll is pretty bad ass though.
Really? Name me another fighter who fought and beat ATG's all the way from lightweight to heavyweight? You reall dont know sh*t about boxing. If you think you do you're welcome to debate this choice with me.
Mayweather? MAYWEATHER?! Hahaha If he beats pacman in their upcoming fight then maybe he belongs with all those names but right now Floyd should be nowhere near any ATG list.
Why, is it not possible to guage a fighters greatness based on newspaper articles, first hand testimony and film of their opponents?
I'm not putting anyone on my list that I haven't at least 3-5 of their matches, because it annoys the hell out of me when people do that. 1. Ray Robinson 2. Joe Louis 3. Muhammed Ali 4. Sugar Ray Leonard 5. Rocky Marciano 6. Roberto Duran 7. Carlos Monzon 8. Marvin Hagler 9. Julio Cesar Chavez 10. George Foreman 11. Alexis Arguello 12. Roy Jones Jr. 13. Joe Frazier 14. Thomas Hearns 15. Bernard Hopkins 16. Wladimir Klitschko 17. Manny Pacquiao 18. Lennox Lewis 19. Floyd Mayweather Jr. 20. Joe Calzaghe 21. Oscar De La Hoya 22. Felix Trinidad 23. Mike Tyson 24. Larry Holmes 25. Jake LaMotta
Marciano 5th and Chavez 9th? How do you justify that? They wdre two of my favorite fighter but come on!!
I got no defense I like them better than the others and Marciano was undefeated after all, something almost no one else of his era could claim. I like Chavez a lot. :conf So why Not.
You seem to have missed Archie Moore, Ezzard Charles, Henry Armstrong, Willie Pep, Benny Leonard, and Walcott. Leonard above Duran is objectively incorrect. Arguello and Jones way too high. Wlad ahead of Lennox and no Vitali?? Unless this is supposed to be p4p?
Hey this is my Top 25 ATG list write your own list if you think you can do better, no criteria was given this is just the way I see it. Also I wrote I won't put anyone on the list I haven't seen at least 3-5 matches of theirs and I haven't seen that much of Archie Moore, Ezzard Charles, Henry Armstrong, Willie Pep, Benny Leonard, and Walcott, so I didn't put them on my list. Personally I think Wlad's resume trumps Vitali's.
