B level fighters of the PAST the would have dominated today's divisions?? Ike Quartey would have defitnately be a dominant champion today at 147.
this is the problem in 20 years well be sayin "shane mosley would dominate (insert champion here )" give a rest with all this back in the day ****
EXACTLY! :happy :happy All of these "best of all time (insert whatever)" Are all bull****. Also, No B level fighter would have dominated an A level fighter I don't care when they fought. A thread in the lounge some dude's greatest Baseball player list of all-time is bull****, because you can't say so and so was better than because they are all A+ players, and it doesn't ****ing matter where you put them. All "greatest players/fighters/whatever of all-time" are all ****ing rubbish.
Put the bong down, open the window, the fresh are will help. Ike Quartey, that the joke of the day???
Am I tripping or have Ike Quartey, Julio Cesar Chavez Senior, and Shane Mosley all been indirectly referred to as "B level fighters" in this thread? :?
Ike Quartey would be a good quality champion today, but not a standout. If you're going to talk about great welters of the past, Ike Quartey would not come to most people's minds. You're better off mentioning Leonard, Hearns, or even Oscar De La Hoya (I heard he was pretty good). :yep Edit: I noticed you meant B level. No, Quartey is no better than todays champs. Margarito, Mayweather, Cotto, Pac, Mosley could beat him any given day.
Eh.... None. It takes an A level anything to reach the top spot in your trade, u dont fluke it. Its amazing to become no1 at anything in the world let alone combat. All true champs are a level fighters. I hate those terms a level and b level. We dont call ray allen a B level nba player do we?? But hes the 20 th best guard right now, yet with boxing we call the 4th best boxer in a division B level?!? We re the only sport that not only disses the contenders but even the champs- daily. No wonder these guys dont wanna fight each other- theyll be persecutrd as b levels- thats why everyones prtecting their recird these dqys. Its some bull**** that needs to change in boxing culture. U gotta respect a man that fights for his livlihood and for your entertainment.
