    I like Kermit Cintron and think he is a lot better than people give him credit, also i think he has a good chance to beat Williams

    I dislike Kermit Cintron and I think he is even worse than people think.

    JCC is vastly overrated and has received more gifts than any other top 100 ATG.

    So you're an Albuquerque guy then, that's a great home town hero to have. Brilliant boxer in his prime, it was crazy when he came back as a featherweight years later, he was fighting like Jake LaMotta or somethin!

    But yeah he's my pick for number one at 115.

    yup my dad played ball with him when he was young
    i saw him the three days before he went to jail. he came to my work for some burgers lol. i got his autograph and a picture lol.

    i personally think he was robbed against ayala(spell check). Him beating danny romero was a great day for me lol.

    I rate Benny Leonard and Pernell Whitaker over Ray Robinson on my ATG list.
    I think as great as he was at 130 & 135 Julio Ceaser Chavez is overated at 140.
    Given the information he had you can not fault Richard Stele for any decision he could have made in the final seconds of Chavez/Taylor 1.

    Kelly Pavlik is no more than a decent fighter.

    Mike Tyson is extremly overrated.

    That Vitali and Wlad are medicore at best.

    Right Sugar...wrong surname...Sugar Ray Robinson was IMHO the greatest P4P all time....with Henry Armstrong runner up.

    Mine is not so controversial as history shows that Ali ,whilst being a great,was no way the greatest H/Weight with him getting away with holding by biased referees and fighting quite a few bums,and his so called "dancing" round the ring was a cure for insomnia .Coopers left hook in a heavyweight fight before he became champion showed his failings and only Dundee's time wasting saved him from having to come out dazed.Ali's finest punch was not the "rope a dope" K O of Foreman...but the one he took from Frazier in their 1st at the Garden and managed to get up..

    My other controversial point is that Tyson would have K O'ed Ali if both fought at their peak, and that Tyson had the ability to be the greatest Heavyweight of all time....had he not gone off the rails.

    Duran is top 5 ATG
    Castillo beat Floyd
    RJJ is overrated
    Floyd got a point for the drug testing
    Ortiz is not the biggest ***** in boxing
    Oscar beat Whitaker
    Cotto beat Clottey
    the list goes on :)

    LOL I was just about to write that prime, focused Tyson would beat any HW in any generation.
