    Props to Joe for coming to the US and showing the likes of Ricky how to get the job done !!

    But who from Europe can claim to be the best fighter ever ???

    I know Lennox has a strong case but does this win propell Joe above LL ??


    Discuss !!:bbb

    Top 10 ever for sure. I have Wilde definately above him, Kid Lewis, and Lennox Lewis ahead off the top of my head.

    Seems to get the job done though doesn't he? Being a great boxer isn't just down to how hard you can punch, there are many elements.

    Same, you could make a good case for eithr. What do you think he has to do to pass the two Lewis's, Wilde, and Fitzsimmons?
