    Loma is the most skilled fighter I`ve ever seen and had the best amateur career of all-time and was the best ever olympic gold medalist.

    Sometimes you have to do it in a way where it's difficult to identify which cartoonish bias is influencing it.

    Still doesn't deserve to be on this list. Both Mayweather and Pacquiao rank higher. Only 15 fights and the most skilled fighter I've ever seen wouldn't lose to a fighter of Salido's ability. He's a great fighter but has a lot more to prove. Amateur career's doesn't count here.

    UK's most insecure man in Carl "I fought in front of 80000 at Wembley " Froch .

    US's most insecure man is Floyd "Please everyone keep talking about me and tell me how great I am" Mayweather

    I feel sorry for him.

    He doesn't put Ali or SRR on the list because some people think their better than Floyd. So he likes to discredit both of them

    Floyd’s a twat but I kind of like how he has Aaron Pryor on there. He’s right Pryon never lost a fight as a prime boxer and to Gayweather that means everything so I can understand him being there

    His accomplishments as an amateur do not make him an all time great professional. Also idk how you put any stock into that ridiculous inflated record of his unless you can verify its both true and the quality of the opposition he faced for a majority of those fights. Also Rigo is a 2 time gold medalist and looks very skilled on film yet you would be laughed at if you ever put his name next to Willie pep or Muhammad Ali. There is simply zero justification to calling Loma an all time great at this point in time

    you cannot claim Harry Greb must be included. None of us have seen him fight a single round

    Ali and Pep had fantastic elements to their style but never faced any fighters with the defensive capabilities of Rigo.

    Huh? Even Lomachenko landed a bunch of punches on Rigo, Mark.

    Awful list and I'm a Floyd fan

    Duran might be top 5, but no chance anyone else on his list is, including himself

    Srr
    Armstrong
    Ali
    Greb
    Langford
