    Apparantly it dont take much to be one of the better posters in here.

    The guys in the Brit Forum regard this place as full of ******ed Amercian with very fickle views that can change overnight

    How can one idiot have a top ten of all time list

    Have Sugar Ray Leonard at Number 1

    and

    Have Sugar Ray Leonard at Number 8

    :lol: :patsch

    yeah that sounds about right....but i dont think Duran would be able to go the distance with Robinson, i'd say he hits atleast as hard as Hearns does, and he sparked him with one punch....

    honestly i dont think theres a fighter in the history of boxing that can beat SRR at 147 or 154, and there are very few that can beat him at 160....but even those that can, i dont think they'd beat him more times then he'd be them

    Holyfield dstroys Enzo in about the same time David Haye did.

    Anyways.....I'd favour Robinson over all of them bar Hagler. Maybe the Hagler fight would be a draw, I don't know....but I feel Prime Hagler would be a hard matchup for anybody. And Ray Robinson would come to fight, unlike Sugar Gay Leonard.

    Okay, that was a cheap shot, but I feel strongly about the Hagler-Leonard fight.

    duran that beat leonard might have a chance, but srr still had more power in his punches than srl with speed to match. i think it could of been a draw or duran actually winning at least one out of three and srr would ko duran brutally in a rematch or rubber match. he'd keep his distance vs. hagler and win a close one vs. his protege, srl. wow, that fight would have to be seen in slow motion, but it would of been one for the ages

    Hagler beats him. If Jake beats him Hagler destroys him.

    yup, srr wasn't as invincible as he was at ww, but he still did great. i think hagler beats him at mw in a close fight.

    LaMotta beat Robinson 1 out of 6 times, and that time he outwieghed Sugar Ray by 16lbs.

    This is very poor logic. If an old Duran can give Hagler problems, if a newly unretired Leonard can beat him, imagine what peak Robinson would do? It's all around bad reasoning.
