Quality of the fighter who was beaten and dominance/comprehensiveness of the win factor in 50/50 Some Candidates for consideration 147 Duran over Leonard, Leonard over Hearns 160 Jake lamotta over Ray robinson 168 Roy Jones over James Toney CW Holyfield over De Leon HW Schmeling over Louis and Ali over Foreman
Not as big of names as ^^^, but when Vazquez beat the 4 year champ Marquez it was huge because he lost to Marquez 5 months earlier and then successfully defended it against him 7 months later after he won the title from Marquez
HW: Schmeling over Louis LHW: Marshall over Charles MW: Turpin over Robinson WW: Duran over Leonard LW: DeJesus over Duran FW: Saddler over Pep BW: Harada over Jofre FW: Lee over Wilde.
Great 4 fight series. I was a fan of both Marquez brothers, but at 122 i think rigondeaux win over Donaire is better when you consider how dominant the win was except for the flash KD
I need to see that fight, I have not .. But you are right because the Marquez Vazquez wars were so evenly matched and basically impossible to even pick a winner .. It was always a coin flip..
Ali was too heavy when he fought Frazier the first time his prime fight was vs Williams that Ali v Frazier would have been 50/50.

154 is Hearns over Duran for sure. Robinsons wins over Gavilan would be smouldering just below the surface of tier 1.
