Beat everyone and anyone like they'd never been beat before before he even became champion, and then beat five future world champions in...
Is Barkley greater than McCallum?? He did smash out Tommy, give Kalambay, Duran and Nunn hell for 12 rounds (all TOP skilled talents) and grab...
Gans, Norton, Kalambay, Nunn, and Eubank.
Eubank-Watson II is the ultimate.
Duran's foot speed and head movement is like nothing Robinson ever saw though, seriously.
Who didn't hate to be crowded?
Not quite. He and Benny Leonard and Billy Conn were certainly close to inclusion.
Robinson was extremely sweet to watch but was always greatly troubled by crowders (Gavilan, Angott, Zivic, Armstrong, Basora, LaMotta etc)....
Ask Duran or Whitaker to go 42 rounds with a peak Battling Nelson. Ask Sam Langford who the greatest and best fighter ever was.
1. Joe Gans 2. Henry Armstrong 3. Sam Langford 4. Roberto Duran 5. Ray Robinson 6. Carlos Monzon 7. Joe Louis 8. Willie Pep 9. Marvin Hagler 10....
He was taking more jabs in '96 than '91 ;)
Heavily steroid-injuiced in '96. Not so much in '91.
Roy Jones and Floyd Mayweather 1 and 2..... Mayweather who clearly lost to Castillo and Oscar and came out of a fight with a shot to bits...
His criteria is weird though, based on coming back from losses and 'taking beatings'.
