Let's get a definitive list of elite fighters accompanied with their most accomplished performances. I'll start us off. Past or present. This way if any of us had the desire to go and delve into unknown territory via Youtube, we'd know where to start with the fighters who come up in this thread. Marco Antonio Barrera vs Erik Morales I & III vs Naseem Hamed vs Enrique Sanchez vs Jesus Salud vs Richie Wenton Gerry Penalosa vs Kawashima vs Seung Koo Lee vs Mauricio Martinez Orlando Canizales vs Kelvin Seabrooks II vs Billy Hardy II vs Jimmy Navarro vs Louis Curtis vs Gerardo Martinez
muhhamed ali vs earnie shavers vsken norton 2 and 3 joe frazier 1 2 and 3 george foreman ernie terrel floyd patterson arhcie moore sonny liston cleveland williams
I wouldn't have listed the Moore, Norton or Shavers fights personally. Here's my list for Ali. Muhammad Ali vs Cleveland Williams vs George Foreman vs Ernie Terrell vs Jerry Quarry II vs Sonny Liston I vs Brian London
I would personally substitute any one of those for the Ray Minus display, which I think was his very best, and I think that the Fransisco Alvarez display should be on there also.
He's the consensus greatest ever, I take such discussions with a pinch of salt. It's quite ambitious to single out one fighter as the very best to have ever laced them up...but the majority of us do our best.
wow, this is an awesome thread!! What a great way to create a definitive list for great fighters, past & present. Thanks, dude!
