Can anyoune else break in ?, Ward is just starting out on his career but looks favourite to win the S6 but is having every fight at home, Froch could win it and has been performing against high level performers for a while now and Kessler could come back from injury and beat the S6 winner, having already faced Ward and Froch in the tournie before injury. Holyfield is still boxing but could he harm his ranking by continuing fighting ? as there is a chasing pack of active boxers right on his tail.
Not sure but I wouldn't have Calzaghe at 54, he only fought bums and old men you know. Jimmy Wilde also only fought bums
If they fight past their primes, in uncomfortable fights then we can make a comparison. That is the flaw in a lot of debates in boxing.
Roy jones is too low and so is oscar dela hoya. barbados joe walcott certainly too high. so are wilde fitzmons and jofre
Roy Jones is hurting his legacy with every fight, Oscar lost the majority of fights he had against top opposition.
Pacquiao is already in my top 10. Mayweather is defiantley in my top 40. Hopkins fought only lightweights and welterweights
well, i think it's tricky considering you provided a list. this question depends on how we place them based off your list, which would require comparing them to the fighters provided. overall, i think pac can go top 10 (BIG stretch but possible), mayweather (money? **** no...in that case i change my name to duke of awesome) can go as high as bottom of top 15, and bhop could make top 20 with a win over pascal, dominating light heavy and taking a heavy belt
i've seen wilde on top 10 lists before and i just don't get it. tremendous puncher, best welsh fighter ever and amazing accomplishments considering the time but name the top 3 fighters he beat? he really doesn't have the fighters on his ledger to rate anywhere near that high
HOW ! Can Jack Dempsey be above Floyd Mayweather Jr no way is that right , plus James Toney should deffinitly be on that list i can see 5 which dont could be replaced by Toney
Ever heard of Antonio Tarver, Kelly Pavlik, Jean Pascal or Glen Johnson? Or any of the countless others who Hopkins outboxed that do not fit the 'light and welter' description??
