    Who ranks higher in your middleweight list? Say would rank higher in the top 25 of the last 15 years.
    Trinidad or Joppy?

    I can feel this in some way is relating back to Pac.

    Nobody can rate Joppy higher since Tito came to his division and beat Joppy easily. Joppy's good win was Roberto Duran who was 13 years after his last fight with a legends Hearns and Hagler.

    Im going with Joppy. I see I'm the only one. Yeah...tito beat the snot out of Joppy but Tito was not a great MW...Joppy wasn't either but he made his entire career at MW and was a decent champion....So was Keith Holmes. Tito came through and beat Joppy but NO ONE ELSE at MW or who anyone who should have been considered a MW.

    i can see the vote for joppy...i mean H2H obviously it's Tito but Joppy had a better resume and was arguably at one time the best middle in the world (or at worst #2). it's a tougher question than people give it credit for

    When did I say that? Enlighten me? As I think Joppy was average at best.

    Really, how do you compare the two?

    You've got one guy who was a fairly long reigning world title holder (albeit against not exactly strong opposition) who spent most of his career at 160.

    But he got the living **** beaten out of him by Tito.

    I can see Joppy being higher due to longevity at the weight but he was clearly the inferior fighter.

    Who ranks higher all-time at 135? David Diaz or Manny Pacquiao?

    Or what about 140? Ricky Hatton or Manny Pacquiao?


    I'm guessing it has something to do with that.
