Pac and Floyd, one of them are the best P4P All time...really? Where is Sam Langford?

GreatA, you are indeed a great poster who provides excellent videos and I didn't mean to insult you, as I know you made the vid, but I think it is quite a biased video none the less. I certainly agree Wladdy isn't the ATG HW

 

PowerPuncher nuthugs GreatA.

 

You don't have to tell me what he did Suzie, to be honest it's a bit like you're trying to insult my inteligence, i thought you'd know that i'm not too shabby on my boxing history. Anyway, regardless, my statement stands, he isn't contesting the number one spot because namely the fighters that bodhl mentioned outshined him in terms of resume.

Nobody here is detracting from Pep's legacy or achievements, he is one of the best boxers of all time and is not a tier below any other in that regard. But in terms of being regarded the greatest fighter of all time, well see the above.

 

Teeto, I was just pulling your string. I think you have a lot of knowledge. I just don't know why out of all the fighters you listed, You chose to single out Willie Pep.

 

Yeah, maybe that was a bit harsh of me on Pep, i could have went at others there as well:good

 

I didn't really try to prove any point with the video. I made it up in a few minutes to ridicule a poster and might as well have taken the video down immediately after.

As the description under the video says: "This is nothing but a joke. Do not take it seriously." It's not meant to be any kind of proof about the old timers being better than modern fighters. I certainly don't think some 180 lb bareknuckle boxer from the 1800's could take a 240 lb super heavyweight like Wladimir Klitschko. Just thought I'd clear that up.

 

What about Peter Courtney?

 

Courtney of course is an exception. His left cheek to the right glove is a terrific blow indeed.

 

I don´t think so either but the vid is quite good to answer somone like Pachilles who claimes the fighters back then "fought like Charlie Chaplin".

 

No it isn't. Theyre not hopping awkwardly around like kangaroo's.

 

Great video, I lolled
