    Foster ....if you’re gonna dominate a weak division...then you better clean house

    I don’t think there’s any light heavyweight in history that I would make a huge favorite over Bob Foster

    I'd make Charles a pretty comfortable favourite (75-25ish)

    Better? Probably Foster. Greater? Foster no doubt.

    He could but that’s because he was usually always trying to get forward and attack. He had very good boxing ability but his style was to overwhelm and since he was hit table he had that fire that if you tagged him he’d get pissed and want to get even.

    It’s probably what makes him one of the absolute most entertaining fighters of all-time. He rarely had a dull round let alone a dull fight.

    Foster was better, and greater in my opinion.
    Though Pryor had the greatest single win.
    They both dominated their respective weight classes .

    Pryor didn't beat Mamby, Curry, Haley, or Bumphus.
