    :huh

    Ali was a completely shot corpse against Berbick, & was pushing his "punches", it was a depressing fight to watch. :verysad

    Agree. But that he could make it at least a bit competitive against a young contender at that stage I find quite impressive.

    1. Frazier 3
    2. Liston 1
    3. Foreman
    4. Williams
    5. Shavers


    I think the first fight with Liston was like him dominating Williams, except with an actual legendary fighter.

    rez, are you ranking fights or purely performances? cause while i agree with your list, i can't go for frazier 3 or shavers in their positions. he looked damn beatable against shavers and while the frazier 3 was a tremendous performance and show of heart, he certainly looked more dominant against folley, williams, terrell and patterson in their first fight. in frazier 3, they were both 4 or 5 paces from their best

    Richard Dunn fight was a pretty good performance from Memory, and Bugner an ordinary one.

    It's based on his performance, and quality of his opponent at the time of the fight.

    Joe Bugner exceeds Richard Dunn, who I believe is at #33.

    Wrong info on Alex Miteff, it was Henry Cooper II at #18, Joe Bugner at #19, and
    Ken Norton I at #20.

    and tyson´s best preformance was against berbick and spinks in my opinion. and he was not fighting against no legend either.

    Yeah, that's pretty much it.

    Interesting about that fight is that London said he could get up, but knew he'd probably cop a bad beating if he did, so he stayed down.

    Ali's performance against one lattern-jawwed Brain London does rate in the Top 15,
    just ahead of Ken Norton II and Jerry Quarry II.

    Anybody want to guess where the Alfredo Evangilista fight came in........I know.
