In no order. 12 favorites at present... Eusebio Pedroza Genero Hernandez Floyd Mayweather Jr. Miguel Cotto Muhammad Ali Saoul Mamby Ricardo Lopez Terence Crawford Tommy Burns Henry Armstrong Alexis Arguello Lupe Pintor
Generic or not it's hard for me to blame them for being on favorite lists. They are total ATGs, have had massive coverage...I never get tired of seeing ATGs in lists, because they are ATGs. Just me, all respect to your tastes.
1, He was the first Canadian heavyweight champion. 2, He remained active and defended his title regularly,often against larger men. 3. He was willing to break the color line and defend against the number one heavyweight of the day.
Juan Manuel Marquez Thomas Hearns Evander Holyfield Larry Holmes Alexis Arguello Julio Cesar Chavez Pernell Whitaker Mike McCallum Roman Gonzalez Azumah Nelson Mark Johnson Marvin Johnson
Love seeing Azumah mentioned! If I did a list of guys outside of Philly he might actually top my list
Ha ha , Burt looked the part initially. Lovely guy , lacked a fighting mentality, addictive personality, cut easily , he got a long way then ran into a hell of an era. Badly matched after Tyson.
Yes I agree with that. Sportsnight ring any bells ? Harry Carpenter etc.. alot of the stuff with Frank was a bit cheesy. He lost each time he fought a top guy..until McCall. He was certainly a Trier.
Jack Dempsey is my favorite Then, sort of in order Muhammad Ali Rocky Marciano Joe Louis Marvin Hagler Sugar Ray Leonard Raul Macias Tommy Hearns George Foreman Manny Pacquiao Joe Frazier Tyson Fury
These guys are all very exciting to me and can be part of some fantastic fantasy fights. Aside from the top 3 these guys aren't really on a rough order. I had to miss alot of guys out here. I would give some HMs but that's quite the opposite of what the OP wanted. So without further ado... 1. Ezzard Charles 2. Oleksander Usyk 3. Tommy Hearns 4. Billy Joe Saunders 5. Marvin Johnson 6. Saad Muhammad 7. Bobby Chacon 8. Muhammad Ali 9. James Toney 10. Jersey Joe Walcott 11. Pernell Whitaker 12. Guillermo Rigondeaux
Shhhhhh! Nah he was an honourable mention. So did stayed honourable to McGrain and didn't mention him. I do think he's the number 1 HW H2H tho.
