Anyone ranks him in a P4P sense? How many rank him outside their top five? Is it sane to leave him out of a top ten list?
I rank Armstrong in front of him, but I couldnt see who else to rank in front of him, I have him at 2. Im not going to pretend Im very good at making those lists, I never tried to make one over 20 places but to have SRR outside the top 10 is madness.
You could make a case for Langford, Charles, Armstrong and Greb being above him, but nobody else in my view.
Langford and Greb are the ones i could entertain the thought of ranking ahead of him, and i understand the reasoning of the other guys mentioned, but that's just not for me. Its really subjective and arguments come into it and can be made. But to be honest, i feel so strong about having Robinson at the top, that i doubt i'll ever budge. All the guys mntioned are absolute greats of the highest order, i'd like to say that the feats of Langford, Greb etc. taking on guys so much bigger is astonishing considering how they dealt with it.
There's no logical way of putting him outside the top 5. McGrain made the right calls with Langford, Greb, Charles, and Armstrong as the only fighters who can be argued over Sugar Ray. I personally have him at #1, but there is reasoning behind placing those 4 above him. No reasoning exists for placing anyone else (Duran being the top choice) over him.
:good that´s it. The top5 should be Langford, Armstrong, Robinson, Greb and Charles. Also I think the first 4 are a bit ahead of Charles I can see an argument for putting Charles above each of them. So, 5 is the lowest you can rank him imo.
