Does SRL have the best 4 wins of any resume?

Ezzard Charles

Walcott
Burley
Moore
Louis

Yes Joe was inactive but he was diced .. Walcott by many as an all time great heavyweight and Moore and Burley all time greats for sure ..

 

Louis had aged and slipped by the time Charles got hold of him.

 

Fullmer
Basilio
LaMotta
Gavilan
Ray Robinson was rated No.1 in a list compiled by Ring Magazine in June 1996 of the Top 50 fighters in the last 50 years and these four were on the list and Robi beat all four of them.
Robinson looked better than Leonard did when he fought other middleweight legends than Leonard did when beating Hagler who was past his best and Duran looked out of sorts in his rematch vs Leonard, Gavilan who Robi beat at welter would have probably beating the no mas version of Duran therefore Ray`s win over him is a better victory even though I haven`t seen the fight, I`ve seen a film study of Gavilan vs Basilio and both men were awesome but Robi beat both of them, (Basilio was beaten in the rematch by Robi).

 

Langford:
Walcott
Gans
Ketchel
Wills
Flowers
etc

Pick your 4 and it might be the winner

 

Interesting, I guess I'll put these in, though the exact picks are debatable.

Bob Fitzsimmons

Jack Dempsey
Joe Choynski
James J Corbett
Gus Ruhlin​

Sam Langford

Joe Gans
Philidephia Jack O'Brien
Joe Jeanette
Harry Wills​

 

You can argue the case.

Ali?
Liston
Frazier
Foreman
Norton

 

Good call.. This and Greb are the winners for me so far

 

Liston couldn`t cut the ring off and was past his best when Ali out classed him, the second Frazier fight wasn`t that great and Ali held too much, the third bout proved Ali could take unbelievable punishment but not much else, showed some clever offensive moves but was way slower and fatter than his prime. May not have won the second Norton fight and was badly faded by their third bout. The Foreman fight was by far his best out of these matches, no comparison unless you`re talking about the entertainment factor of the third Frazier bout.

 

Ouch! that's strong ain't it

 

You can do the same with Leonard's wins.

 

Holyfield is up there too if you look at names alone. Not counting their age or where they were in their career at the time

Mike Tyson
Riddick Bowe
George Foreman
Larry Holmes

 

Pretty incredible when you think about it ... the best lightweight ever at the time and still up there , same w Walcott and Ketchel .. then Wills who for all we know may be an all time top fifteen heavyweight despite revisionists and apologists .. plus defeated the exceptional and grossly underrated by many Jeannette ..
