    'Consensus divisional rankings' - I don't think anyone cares. You know what's truly great when you see it.

    A close win over Malinga and wins over Rochi and Watson is what he has as quality wins at SMW. Then the draw with Benn, that most thought really was a loss. That is very thin for a top 10 normally, no doubt.

    I just don't think we're on the same wavelength my friend. Continue posting your silly lists.

    Malinga? Tony Thornton was a class above him. Holmes too.

    Mike Tyson is the Goat

    There's no one that can match me. My style is impetuous. My defense is impregnable. And I'm just ferocious

    Didn't your silly list say Michael Watson was the greatest SMW in history and only a force of nature could have beaten him?

    Grow up and stop trolling. Eubank was very modest, but you know greatness when you see it in there (Watson II fight); it's very, very rare.

    I'm not responding to a silly troll, and I suggest others don't take the bait either.

    The only debate is, has there ever been a consensus divisional great who had never cracked the top 2.

    There's no such thing. It's subjective - it's not real.

    So then why are so vociferously arguing that he is a great and did achieve greatness?

    What?!?

    We know what he did in there, when it happens for real life then that's real - that's objective.

    He won a fight he had no right of winning, and it wasn't any kind of luck if you look at the execution of the punch.

    What he did was knock out Watson and spend the rest of his title reign as, at best, the third best SMW in the world.

    Okay wonderful, well done. I find you very disrespectful and can tell you've never boxed professionally or been involved in boxing in any capacity.
