Does anyone have one of these men as their p4p greatest all-time ?

I think all of these are in the running for greatest fighter of all-time, pound for pound.

Any of you have them pegged as THE numero uno ?



JOE GANS

BOB FITZSIMMONS

HENRY ARMSTRONG

BENNY LEONARD

 

I'm not asking about Harry Greb because I already know that he's considered number 1 by quite a few people.
It's usually Robinson , sometimes Greb, sometimes Langford, who get placed at number 1. :good

 

That's a good response, McG.

I think any of the four can make it, as well as Robinson, Greb, Langford ..... and then someone can probably come along and get my ear on Charles, Pep, etc,

Hence why I can't make a serious list of my own!

 

Joe Gans in particular I find interesting, the esteem he was held in at the time.

 

For me, it simply means best fighter ever ..... but not in absolute terms, because that would be a heavyweight.

And, yes, I'd say BOTH of those things you mention are good criteria that would be big factors in deciding who is number 1.
