  1. i just found this 2007 list of the greatest boxers of all-time. the criteria was:
    In-ring Performance
    Achievements
    Dominance
    Mainstream Appeal

    any glaring errors in it do you think?

    Hey, don't listen to this guy, he's clearly trolling. That was a fantastic list. Tricky Nicky "Kid Irish" McDicky was too high, though. He had zero power and too many close calls.

    Fantastic list.

    However I don't see how mainstream appeal can have any relevance imo.

    Just came back to compare this list to my own. I think fitz should be higher but it's good.

    This list is clearly biased in favor of the more ultra modern boxers, and because of that it belongs in general and not in classic...take your garbage elsewhere!!!!

    If the old guys had the benifits of not only modern nutrition and training, but PPV and internet access this list would be more balanced...as it is it just stinks!!!!

    Pretty cool list. I'm really high right now which probably made it even greater too.

    He's the only 3 time heavyweight champion in history.

    He has an aggregate reign of 11 years.

    He's defeated guys ranging from moore, liston and patterson through to norton, frazier and foreman. Throughout the vast majority of his career he defeated everyone he faced. His ill advised return from retirement does not diminish his body of work prior to retiring.
