I like this list - without sidetracking the thread, can I ask why Ali above Duran and Fitz, Robbi no. 4, Langford no. 2 above Hammerin' Hank?
Uncomfortable comfortable for me. Norton makes him work, by timing and jabbing with him, as well as body work. Ali proved he could take...
If modern fighters weren't ridiculously weight draining to gain a perceived fight night weight advantage from rehydration techniques that don't...
In the words of Sullivan, "I can lick any sonofab%$£* in the house" - champion should welcome all legitimate challengers to the crown. Ali took it...

Not debating you, sir - we are agreed on the crucial elements. Just using your posts to flesh out some of my thoughts about the elements that I...

Absolutely agree. I'm a massive Ali fan, as I'm sure most of you guys know from my many years of posting, but I absolutely hate how much...
My HW ranking is based off of ring record, my assessment of their skillset and hypothetical H2H potency. I don't mind people disagreeing, but I...
Schmelling II - absolute destruction of an arguably top 30 HW M. Baer - best filmed performance. Triple left hooks, excellent radar, deceptively...
