    Why is Lewis TKO Vitali not being considered?

    Already explained my reasoning

    1. Hopkins is better than Toney
    2. Jones had a broken hand vs Hopkins
    3. Jones clowned Hopkins

    corrected for you.....

    good fight but not the best.

    What about Hatton-Tszyu? It made Hatton's career.....got him into big money fights against Floyd and Pacman.

    Leonard outpointing Hagler but it was very close so I almost voted Hagler obliterating Hearns going not just toe to toe but eyeball to bloody eyeball lol.

    100 year old Juan Manuel Marquez KO6

    Not even Floyd was able to do that to a KO6 and older fighter.

    Come on man. Morales owns by far the best victory over Pacquiao.

    26 year old pacquiao at 130... respect.

    Why is no one bringing up Floyd vs. Pac. This is a damn good win.

    I think they are very close actually.

    On one hand you have Erik Morales coming out of a brutal as$ war losing to his long time nemesis Marco Antonio Barrera vs Manny Pacquiao who just annhiliated Barrera, and almost KTFO Marquez in round 1 and administering a beating on the rising champ and new HBO darling Pacquiao.

    Then you have Juan Manuel Marquez who arguably beat Pacquiao 3 times, beat every version of Pacquiao since the Barrera fight, is made to wait years in between each rematch despite the consensus saying he was the rightful winner, being pushed to the side, being under paid, and when Marquez is finally slowing down and is getting hit more than ever in is career, finally the P4P#1 or#2 Pacquiao decides to give him the much deserved, much anticipated rematch and gets KTFO, leaving no doubt, giving the judges no opportunity to rob him again.

    Both great wins.

    You are correct, Bronx girl. Biggest upset in boxing history. Maybe in all sports.

    Kalambay-McCallum & Nunn-Kalambay were better wins.

    Your making it complicated.

    What is a better win? Mid 20s Pac or mid 30's Pac?
