List your Top 30 Boxers after Sugar Ray Leonard Era

It's pretty staggering that Pea comprehensively beat number 2 and 13 on the list.

Lopez is too high. His resume is not reflective of his ability in the ring.
Calzaghe is too high. A lot of fighters you have below him beat better fighters.

 

calzaghe should be in the top 5!!! he destroyed hopkins and remained undefeated

 

Destroyed Hopkins? atsch

Did you watch the fight? I think not.... **** off noob

 

why is khaosai galaxy so damn high?

 

Fraudrico

 

Well what fighters were available to them?

You have no problem it seems with Floyds placing, who had a far greater number of "Great" fighters available to him than those 2 did, and didnt fight them. Does that deserve greater reward than fighters who didnt have any in their optimum weight class. Doesnt make sense.(Im a Floyd fan BTW).

 

It doesn't matter if there wasn't great opposition out there during their reign .... the fact just is, they didn't fight great opposition, whether by choice or just because of a lack of talented opponents. Most of the time, if a fighter is a champ in a weak division, they will move up in weight to find better competition.

 

Lewis above Holyfield?? He shouldn't even be higher on a HW list, let alone an all-time P4P ATG list. That's just insane.

 

I agree. Holyfield is the best HW of the last two decades.

Like Hop did for 7 years? Are you sure?

If Tito and Oscar hadnt moved from a couple of weights below, his resume post 94 would have consisted of an eleven year reign fighting nobody and 2 L's to Jermain Taylor. Stuff of legend. He showed no rush to move for 7 years when his divison was weak.

I think when comparing the smaller weights and the bigger weights you have to have some leeway, especially if you have a fighter of the caliber of a Hop and Calzaghe in weak divisions.

 

This list is HORRIBLE:-(

 

lemme guess, you'd probably put floyd, calzaghe, and vitali in the top 5 huh?

Holyfield
Lennox Lewis (props to the guy for beating mostly everyone)
De La Hoya

Okay I got 28. I have only been watching boxing for 8 years. I do like a lot of old school fighters who were before SRL's time though.
