    Henry Maske is the greatest Light Heavy who ever lived, better than Tunney, Loughran, Henry Lewis, Charles, Moore, Spinks... any of them.

    Overall, I actually think there's a lot of very good points/opinions here.

    For a guy that didn't start boxing till age 27 he wasn't too bad. About on par with Valuev or something.

    This deserves a ban.

    This isn't controversial. Jones Jr is considerably bigger than Ray.

    Ok
    Dempsey takes out Louis inside 2 rds.
    Dempsey would have kod Wills.
    Ismael Laguna is overated.
    Marciano should not be above no 9/ 10 A .T. Hvy
    Whichever spot he fills, Frazier fills the other.
    Leonard beat Hagler.
    Monzon bored me.
    Duran Leonard 1, is not aesthetically a great fight.
    Prime Ali beats prime Frazier 3 out of 3.
    Duran only makes the 3 spot at Light weight.
    Louis only makes the 4th spot at Heavy.
    Hopkins just squeeks into the top 10 at 160lbs.
    Langford should not be in the top 10 at Heavy.
    Giardello is on a par with Hopkins.
    Neither Klit deserves a top 10 ranking A.T.
    Cerdan was past prime when he won the title.
    Graziano is very overated.
    Foster is the hardest punching LHY.A.T.
    Ali was technically , not a great pure boxer.
    Wilde and Lynch are the 2 best Flys, with Perez no 3.
    The locks for p4p, are SRR,Greb, Armstrong,and Fitz.
    Pac Man,if he beats PBF, belongs with them.

    Finale! Jack Johnson is the no 2 Heavy A.T. :oops:

    Boxing skills have regressed.:bbb

    Lennox Lewis is not one of the greatest heavyweights of all-time.
    Nor is Floyd Patterson.

    Neither Ray Leonard nor Roberto Duran are among the top 20 all-time p4p.

    I had it as a 6-6 Draw, it was an inconclusive fight.

    I thought it was amazing.

    I would say 2/3 Peak for Peak.

    Agreed.
