    I think frazier loses to foreman, louis, tyson, bowe, lewis, holmes and wlad. Maybe a couple others I can't remember.

    Conn had a great career but his defining fight was a loss. I think jones beats him on points.

    Robinson consistently lost after coming back from retirement. Darcy never had that chance.

    Pea can fight for the full distance and has enough pop and angle to catch anyone off balance. I can't see anyone beating pea at lw.

    Fenech I discussed in an above post.

    Flyweight is far deeper than most boxing fans realise. Harada is as good a shout as any.

    HW: Muhammad Ali
    LHW: Ezzard Charles
    MW: Ray Robinson
    WW: Ray Robinson
    LW: Pernell Whitaker/Roberto Duran
    FW: Willie Pep

    Don`t know enough about the smaller weights overall & can`t choose between Duran & Whitaker.

    It's a great watch as well that one.

    If Marcel got chucked out for that (!) Andre Dirrell should get DQ'd every fight he's in. I don't think Marcel was too bad towards the end. I had Duran up by a point or so.

    Both would go on to be brilliant fighters.

    This referee probably would've stopped Leonard-Duran2 in the first round in favour of Duran:lol:

    Good fight though eh? A very important piece of film that IMO.

    Yes.

    Duran came along at the perfect time. They were pretty solid about getting all these fights filmed when he exploded onto the scene.
