    It'll be interesting to see how this pans out. No blatant hate or nuthuggery; what is the greatest victory ever in boxing???

    I have Frazier over Ali followed by Duran over Leonard. Any other candidates????

    No offense to Hops--one of my favorite fighters--but I can think of at least 15 better victories than this off the top of my head.
