    people consider galaxy as ATG, by why not consider tapia too, they have the same accomplishment at 115 and tapia is a better fighter head to head

    calzaghe and lopez are very good boxer but for you they are not even got to top 100, we must not make too many list of ATGs I think 100 is fair enough.
    for me it should be only 50 so that we can select the best of the best so their names will shines more brightly than ever... for those who can't make the top 100 they belong on HOF list but not as ATGs.:deal

    lopez is top 75 while calzaghe is top 85 for me...if you limit that to top 50 then, trinidad, barrera, morales, canto, liston, tyson, benitez, zarate and delahoya are not ATG in your book?

    Calzaghe shouldnt even be on that list, he didn't beat anyone great(be fought a washed up RJ)... hes waiting for everyone to be washed up so he could come out of retirement...

    Ricardo and Calzaghe for me. Wright beat a lot of guys when they were ready to be beaten.

    I disagree....Ricardo did have an abundance of skills but he also faught the very best of his division for YEARS! And dominated. Unfortunately the lower weight classes never get the "glits and glamour" that the higher weight classes enjoy, but the competition is ALWAYS stiff! Joe had some GREAT wins at the very end of his career but his overall resume lacks a lot of "substance". Even his BEST wins are met with a good amount of questions. One thing both Ricardo and Joe have is ELITE level skills. Joe has BIGGER NAMES, but Ricardo has a better resume.
