    I'm still waiting for an explantion of Chavez's ranking ahead of Whitaker Butcher, aside from your personal love for him.

    I can understand you questioning why Tyson is not in there but Tarver? I wouldn't even rate Tarver in the top 100 ever.

    Mayweather and Jones do not belong in there.

    This list is pure crap, CRAP CRAP CRAP..

    Antonio Tarver? No Carlos Monzon? Calzaghe in the top 20? Floyd above Whitaker? Shane Mosely top 25? I can keep going

    This list is stupid.


    Tarver should be at least top 15 and were clearly missing Zab Judah from the Top 10 ... ****s going on here?

    Anytime I see guys like Jones, Mayweather, Tarver, Calzaghe, Tito, Mosley, DLH and Toney near the top 20, I have a problem with the list.

    While all of those men are great fighters, they don't belong in the top 25 of all time greats.

    Jones and Hopkins are probably top 50. Calzaghe is top 75. Tito, Mosley, DLH, Toney are top 125-150. Tarver is top 250-300.
