Who is the greatest living boxer ?

RJJ is too high considering PEDs imo

 

RJJ was the greatest fighter of the decade in the 90’s, first and only person in 100 years to win a belt at middleweight and Heavyweight. He used peds to move up weight classes just like every other modern boxer today. You can’t look at me with a straight face and call RJJ a ped cheat then claim Pacquiao and Mayweather are clean, that’s absurd.

 

Correct...not even close.

What notable historian, trainer, expert has Holmes above Duran? I doubt a single one. Duran beats him in every dept, with the exception of the jab. Power, defense, ring generalship, timing, speed, experience, better wins on resume. Best win -prime Leonard. Holmes...Norton? Not desparaging Holmes at all.

RJJ, Leonard, Duran, Michael Spinks for me. In that order.

 

Holmes would destroy Duran and he'd destroy every boxer Duran ever fought.

 

Duran Jones Leonard JCC in any order what takes you . Holmes also a worthy mention .

Jones is a head to head favorite from 154 to 168 against any fighter from any era. No other fighter living today was or is that dominate.

 

Don't watch this then....

In fairness Usyk even makes earrings look masculine, so I think he deserves a pass.

 

Yeah, no. RJJ got caught cheating. Most boxers dont. Presume all you want, RJJ is a drug cheat and probably always was. His superiority stemmed from speed, power, and endurance - all physical traits that directly benefit from doping.

Hard pass on all that **** you talking. RJJZ a trashcan cheater

 

Duran's probably got a gorgeous dusky 22 year old girlfriend who pierced his ears after a few drinks and a threesome with her twin sister who runs a jewellery stall, so i'll give him a pass.

 

Yeah that’s true. If you’re talking the best or h2h then it’s gotta to be the heavyweights with the likes of Holmes, Lewis, Tyson, an Holyfield of the ones that are still alive today

 

Duran

Leonard
Holmes/Jones/Chavez
Lewis
Tyson
Hearns
Holyfield
Benitez

Then there’s Golovkin, Gomez, Usyk, Mayweather, Pacquiao.

 

Duran from 135-147 beats Jones credentials IMO. Even at 130 young Duran is a nightmare

 

Duran lost at 135 and had a few close calls too.
