Rank these guys in order Tapia,Tszyu,Calzaghe,Winky,Klitchko bros

i included the Klitchkos because on another thread someone mentioned the K bros as second tier greats of the last 20 years,,, I actually have at least 20 other fighter over them though. Of these fighters my order looks like this

Tapia
Winky
Tszyu
Calzaghe


Vitali-Wlad are equal as i think Vitali wins in a hth matchup but Wlad has better skills.

 

Dammit, anarci. You always come out with these threads where you want four, five, six, seven, eight fighters in order. It's too hard!:twisted: Off the top of my head, I'm going to say, and I'll be damned if I couldn't see it rationalized into the opposite of what I'm going with, but:

Tapia
Calzaghe
Wright
KT
Wlad
Vitali

Vitali is the brother I prefer to watch (I like stylistic weirdos) but longevity aside, Wlad's the one whose body allowed him to stick around and his resume and achievements are simply always going to be rated higher. I'm impressed by Vitali's comeback, regardless of the opposition, but Wlad's 2004-2011 run garnered him Ring championship recognition, unification, avenging of a loss, victories over 5 undefeated fighters, one a future titlist and two current titlists. Vitali can't compete with that, even if I feel he does better VS history's great heavies than Wlad. Still, at this point I have them both at the p4p tail end on this list.

 

Winky
Calzaghe
Tapia
Tszyu
Wlad
Vitali

Tapia and Tszyu were better fighters than Calzaghe in terms of ability, but Joe C had a slightly better resume and career, so he edges ahead of them.

Considering I scored the Vargas and Taylor fights both for Winky, he is a clear, clear winner here.

 

Tapia
Wright
Calzaghe
Tszyu
Wlad
Vitali

Several orders are acceptable though. Wouldn't have any issue with them.

 

1Tapia
2 Vitali Tszyu Wright
3 Calzaghe Wlad

 

Tapia
Tszyu
Klits
Winky
JC

 

Oh yeah:yep

 

Yey i hear you on Vitali and Wlad as i can go either way,personally i prefer Vitali though as he isnt the one with the achilles heel like Wlad (chin), but is the more fluid and skillful fighter as well as the bigger puncher. But Vitali has beat up 2 of lil bros conquers or guys that gave him tough fights (Sanders,Purrity) (Peter )and some what easily i might say.

I also think Vitali does better against alot hw from the past in fantasy matches.

 

that would be my list

 

WHere you been Vato? Been meaning to talk to you on FB about this weekends fights.

 

Too be honest I think all of these guys are on roughly the same level of greatness when you add up all the varying factors. If I was forced to rank them it would probably be:

1. Winky
2. Calzaghe
3. Tapia
4. Wlad
5. Tszyu
6. Vitali

But I wouldn't complain if either Calzaghe or Tapia got top spot and can just about see why someone would put any of the other three top, even if I don't agree.

 

1. Tapia
2. Winky
3. Tszyu
4. Calzaghe
5. Wlad
6. Vitali

 

:think...I always thought I tended to rate Tapia more highly than most. ...Guess not! :happy

 

Yes i agree i am pleasantly suprised to see the majority of posters ranking Tapia 1st... I dont here posters talk about him much and was thinking he would be underrated. Especially with all the Calzaghe and Tszyu nuthuggers, i guess i wasnt giving the General enough credit.
