    I'm newish to the forum and I can imagine it's a thread that has been done to death in the past but I ask because I am interested to see the suggestions and having got to know some of the posters (on a boxing discussion level) I'd like to see who each would pick?
    So just ONE, who do you consider the greatest, p4p, to ever lace up the gloves? I've seen top tens etc but I want to know number 1
    For me it's a pretty simple and i guess obvious choice;

    Muhammad Ali. Greatest there ever was in the sport for so many reasons. Thats my opinion. Fire away.

    Sugar Ray Robinson.
    In his prime he had a record of 131-3-1-1
    The losses were to Lamatta which he avenged 5 times and was outweighed by more than 15 pounds.
    Other was to Randy Turpin which he avenged by Ko
    The other loss was to the Light Heavyweight Champion of the world in a fight that he was up on the score cards after 13 rounds, but couldn't continue because of the 103 degree tempature

    Calzaghe, 46-0 beats Hopkins/Jones/Kessler/Eubanks+ many more during their prime.

    Not as clear cut as some may think. I have:
    1) Harry Greb
    2) Robinson
    3) Armstrong

    But tbh, either of these 3 could be number 1 and i wouldnt complain too much

    It's the obvious choice for a reason.

    I have no answer to the thread, too many greats out there to single just one as the best p4p.

    Just say SRR. The bandwagon's kinda full but I expect a lot more room once Ali eventually kicks the bucket.
