    Duran ranked No.3 by ring magazine P4P list of P4P best fighters in 50 years date issue June 1996
    Chavez ranked No.6 in same list
    Arguello No.8
    Williams No.10
    coming 5th behind these guys trumps the other options in the poll, replace one with Whitaker if you want.

    Middle or Heavy.

    Women are not fond of small men, usually.

    To know, and others knowing too,

    That i had achieved a lot of things in my career, that some could only dream of and not for the want of trying.

    Good question.

    My view is if you're in the top 20 then you're atg level. If I'm honest I'd rather be atg level at HW than the lower weights as it inevitably brings more money, ladies and fame.

    I can but dream. At 40ish I'm still way younger than Luis Ortiz - there's still time.

    Legacy doesnt matter if your health and wealth are not there.
    So whichever option that leaves me with.

    Once you reach 5'10" (a legit 5'10" not the gym bro version of 5'10" which is when guys add 2 inches to their real height) there is a diminishing return on male height and female attraction. That is to say, a 6'5" guy doesn't have much of an advantage over 5'10" guy. Especially since all the studies suggest that a height of 5'11" to 6'1" is ideal. Obviously though he'd have a massive advantage in formidability, but that's not exactly the same thing.

    Snow flake answer?
    :lol: GTFO.

    And my answer was, and still is whichever option leaves me with health and wealth.
    Health, wealth and legacy? **** yeah! Legacy on it's own? Nah, I am good.

    Some idiot replied on this forum once saying he would have traded his brain health to have Ali`s legacy!
