:verysad Alright, rather than get dragged into another pissing match, I'll be the mature one this time and refuse to get sucked into a nonsensical debate with a clearly misinformed and biased poster. Waste other people's time.
And, yet again, I ask: name a half dozen top fighters that Chavez beat to deserve to be top 5 over the last 30 years. I'm not saying he wasn't an excellent fighter, not trying to start a pissing contest. But I've yet to hear any names. Camacho. Who else? Nevermind.
Here's 8 quality names he beat from 130-140. His resume is not the best in terms of quality, but in terms of quantity and consistency he's among the best of his time. Taylor Rosario Camacho Ramirez Mayweather Lockridge La Porte Haugen
Leonard Whitaker Jones Holyfield Hopkins Durans entire LW carrer was before 80, same with a lot of Haglers carrer, so it puts him below these fighters
Posters like you who need to be TOLD who is great yet argue are a waste of time, as Sweet Pea said. Why should anyone supply names of fighter that you likely never heard of will likely just discredit as meaningless wins? You're obvisouly a troll....
Funny, because I think the other names deserve to be there hands down. Why's that? Because they fought top, atg fighters and won. Sometimes boxing fans are just sheep.
1.Sugar Ray Leonard 2.Lennox Lewis 3.Marvin Hagler 4.Sweet Pea 5.Ricardo Lopez from 105 to 505lbs, these guys kicked ass for dinner and had a reign of terror at some point. they fought THE best and won. i have Holyfield, Pryor, and Chavez in my top 10 since 1980
Nice, I think Spinks is pretty overlooked by many. My list... Whitaker Leonard Jones Jr. Hearns Duran
Really? I thought I'd catch all kinds of hell for that one. lol. He beat everybody at the time, and in a top LHW era, and beat them convincingly. Very underappreciated these days, only because he was destroyed by a Tyson, a true HW, and because he retired after that. I think the Hagler-Hearns-Duran trio is pretty interchangeable. There were all so ATG, how do exclude one?
