Post your ATG rankings

I will make one up and post it tomorrow morning.

 

I haven't seen it . But, on the Classic section we had a huge discussion about Jack Johnson where I learned a lot about his career.

 

OK, thank you.

 

1) Danny Garcia
2)SRR
3) FMJ
4)Mike Tyson
5)Joe Louis
6) ALI
7) Marciano
8) Angel Garcia
9)Alfonso Gomez
10) Magic man Malignaggi

 

Been a while since I have done one of these lists, and it really reminds me why I don't usually bother:

1. Robinson
2. Greb
3. Langford
4. Duran
5. Armstrong
6. Charles
7. Ali
8. Pep
9. Ray Leonard
10. Fitzsimmons
11. Gans
12. Benny Leonard
13. Jofre
14. Louis
15. Walker
16. Whitaker
17. Ross
18. Jones
19. Moore
20. McLarnin

I think it's best to avoid ranking active fighters, unless they are so far past their prime that nothing is going to impact on their legacy. When the smoke clears I'll probably have Mayweather in the lower top 20, potentially higher or lower depending on how his career finishes from here.

 

I like this list.:good

 

His record is littered with victories over all time greats who were at their peak? I'll just double check it! I don't rate Joe as a ATG, mate. And my dad was Welsh so I should be biased towards Joe!

 

You've put some thought into that! Where's Joe Calzaghe, though?

 

Love the list but feel Holyfield should be ranked a little higher especially over Hopkins and. Barrera should be above Morales imo but great list none the less .

 

Great list!

, I would ranked over Floyd. There are a few more I think should be ranked but I cannot in my own mind prove it...yet. When I can, I will make the argument.

Thanks again McGrain. Fantastic list

 

Hahahaha, are you serious, dude?!?!

I am serious, dude.

Hopkins, Ortiz, Pacquaio, Olivares, Holyfield, Sanchez, Gomez, Maricano, Basilio, Zarate, De La Hoya, Holmes, Lamotta, Frazier, and Foreman all are better fighters, beat better fighters, took on better competition, and have had more of a possitive effect on the sport of boxing that Floyd. My oppinion. I could be wrong but in this case I do not think so. We can discuss it further if you like.

Heck, here is another one if you like all that. Mosley with two wins over De La Hoya, Vargas, KO over Margarito who had just destroyed Cotto, his very close "loss" against an still undefeated Cotto, and the high level of competetion he fought and lost close fights to like Forrest and Wright. And please do not forget his dominant lightweight reign.

He may not be as flashy and as mouthy as Floyd but, he got into the ring with dangerous opponents all the time and beat the beJesus out of most of them.

There you go.

Thanks.

 

Well I do have major respect for your first line...

But almost everything else; no.

And I don't really care to get in the conversation. I have no doubts you know your boxing, but some opinions will not change on an internet forum. I don't intend to waste my time. Everyone has opinions and in a sport so subjective and with so much history, that is natural.
