    Now wait just a minute, pilgrim.

    Is "the greatest of all time" the same as "the best ever"? I saw a boxer wearing a cap that had "TBE"
    on the front.

    Asking for a friend.

    I don't normally attempt Pound for Pound evaluations. For Sugar Ray Robinson, I'll make an exception. Yes and yes.

    After a drink he would bellow he could knock any SOB out and then he probably could.

    No different things. TBE is the best ever inside and outside the ring as regards the business of boxing which of course is Floyd Mayweather.

    The P4P greatest is obviously and universally acclaimed as SRR and

    The GOAT of all time of course is the greatest himself Muhammad Ali the black superman. Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee, your hands can’t hit what your eyes can’t see. Rumble young man rumble.

    Of course the perfect fighter was Roberto Duran the fighter of the 70s, what a fighter, what a man.

    Both Sugar Ray Robinson and Harry Greb are neck and neck as the GOAT, there's no doubt about it.

    The great Eddie Futch thought he was even better than SRR. The skills in those days were off the charts. I love rewatching the Ezzard Charles vs Jersey Joe Walcott fights.

    Nobody will fight as often ever again. And the possibilities of someone re-shaping again the sport as he did are next to zero.

    So yes, and yes.

    Of course I have doubts, I've never watched greb fighting. How could it be possible to have no doubt when you have never watched a fighter fighing?

    I'm not a believer, man. The only thing I belive is my own freaking sinner eyes.

    Putting srr and greb at the same place is insulting. We all have watched what srr can do. No-****ing-living-body in this forum or in any other part of the earth has ever watched greb fighting. No, man, there are levels.
