There are some boxers in the last 50 years that are fighting for the last 10 to 15 places in my personal Top 100 ATG list. How would you rank these boxers? Currently I have them ranked like this 1. Miguel Canto 2. Azumah Nelson 3. Roman Gonzalez 4. Nonito Donaire 5. James Toney 6. Vitali Klitschko 7. Andre Ward 8. Gennady Golovkin 9. Aaron Pryor 10. Mike McCallum
I’d struggle to see a case for Vitali in the top 200 let alone borderline 100. Golovkin and Ward feels miles off too. Nelson McCallum Toney Feels like the top 3. Chocolatito and Pryor probably edging out Canto.
No love for Donaire? he has an outstanding resume on 112 and 118. I think he is in the same tier as Chocolatito Pryor is good but he is only defined by the Arguello fight. We some argue that Arguello is already past his prime by the time he moved up to 140.
Wow surprised the Vitali did not get enough votes. I am beginning to think the Wladimir and Vitali are not in the same bracket in rankings ATGs. I will still rank them above Walcott, Schmeling, Patterson, Liston, Norton, Bowe, Fury and AJ.
Liston is in a different tier to those guys. Vitali is a bracket below them all. He literally has the weakest resume of any hall of fame fighter. His best win is a TKO loss. Wladimir probably rates above the others over a career but Fury is better and will likely overtake him soon.
