    Opinions r like A***S, everybody has 1 ! ... but damn, that list is a "bit" way off... I coult tell a 10 yr old kid a brief 20 min. history of boxing and he would come up with a more accurate top-100 list... That's my opinion!:yep

    Much to the consternation of Roy's blind fanboys on here, it should be noted that Tarver single-handedly ***** slapped Roy from the Top 30 all the way down to #88 with the most humiliating mind **** and pwnage in boxing history.

    I think his most over-rated win is Hopkins. Hopkins had completed one 12 rounder when Jones beat him, one. It's a fine scalp, but if you're basing a resume on a victory over a MW whose whole style was developed around assets that improve with experience - range-control, angles, neutralisation, timing - there's something wrong.

    If Bert could name 40 fighters greater than Jones, I would pay his old ass $100.00 for each fighter that I agree who should be ranked higher...

    You can't name 86 fighters better thn RJJ Bert Sugar is a ****ing hack and has no credibility left after making that statement. Jones is a top 25 ATG at the least.:deal

    Yet another reason why this list lacks credibility. SRL is a top 10 or 15 ATG at the least. But yet this mouth breather has him 25th.:patsch

    Aye, the list is ****ing horrible. It's not even worth talking about really. It's one of the worst lists out there.

    Its hard to argue with his top 10 though.
    1) Ray Robinson
    2) Hank Armstrong
    3) Willie Pep
    4) Joe Louis
    5) Harry Greb
    6) Benny Leonard
    7) Muhammad Ali
    8--Roberto Duran
    9) Jack Dempsey....(perhaps a bit high especially in regards to Gene Tunney)
    10) Jack Johnson

    As soon as I saw Tyson at 100, he lost a lot of credibility with me...
