The All-Time H2H ONLY Rankings

I couldnt name one heavyweight who would beat super southpaw corrie sanders the freak of nature ATG.

 

I think Vitaly would be an uphill battle for many ATG's but I think there is a difference between being an uphill battle and causing trouble to greats and being the number 1 fighter on a H2H list.

 

I didn´t write he is. I agreed with Lennox Lewis and just brought in Vitali because i think he would give anbody a good fight and wanted some oppinions on that. But well, it seems most guys over here aren´t interested in discussing this subject but more on bashing. That´s poor.

 

Well, you don´t need an atg to beat an atg, sometimes you just need the right style or you just need to be the right man at the right place. Said that, i agree with most, if not all, of these guys beating him but they would have to be at their A-game to do so.

I also wanted to name DM as someone who would pose any lhw some problems but somehow i forgot it.

 

HW: Ali
LHW: Charles
MW: Monzon
WW: Robinson
LW: Duran
FW: Saddler
BW: Harada
FyW: Wilde

 

Well the threadstarter picked Lewis, i agreed but at the moment Vitali sprang to my mind and i wanted to know what the rest here thinks about him giving any hw a goof run for their money. That´s it. But well, there really seems to be a strange reflex related to the name Klitschko.

 

There was one heavyweight vitali couldnt give a hard night too...The peak version of super southpaw Corrie Sanders the freak of nature ATG.

 

HW - Muhammad Ali

The list he has already beaten, Frazier, Liston, Foreman might well not likely be scaled by any other heavyweight ever.

LHW - Michael Spinks

I'll go the less chosen route here. Tho he didn't have 200 fights he beat superb opposition at 175 and was never headed. His adaptability and sheer ability to win is as important as his neck breaking power when warring down the timeline. He's the sort of fighter that makes me confident he will find a way when up against it at 175.

MW - Carlos Monzon

I would like to pick SRR on his best night here, but will pay homage to Monzon's ATG consistency in his natural weight class.

JMW - Thomas Hearns

Boils down to who one favours out of Hearns vs McCallum really, and i personally go for Thomas.

WW - SRR

No explaination needed.

JWW - Pernell Whitaker

Oh the controversy. Truth is this is H2H and Whitaker collected a title easily on his way thru at a time where he was very close to peak. I think he can get by both Chavez and Pryor so here he stands.

LW - Roberto Duran

He's hard to go against and i often think his best opposition could well be Whitaker.

JLW - Julio Chavez

No confidence for any choice here as i really can't pick between Arguello and Chavez with Floyd sneaking around too. Not a bee's dick in this one.

FW - Henry Armstrong

I think he'd trouble Pep greatly with his ridiculous workrate and frenzied no rest attack. His durability also holds him in good stead vs Saddler. I don't often see him picked over these two, but here he is.

JFW - Jeff Fenech

Tho i rate Gomez the better overall fighter and a fearsome great i have always harboured the suspician Fenech would get over him. I believe he would smother the much crisper Gomez offensive and good fighters were quite often put off by Fenech's total lack of respect for them and their reputation. In short - Fenech roughs them up and drags them straight out of their comfort zone. This IMO could happen here.

BW - Carlos Zarate

I'd long been swayed into picking Jofre here but am going back to my earlier guns and going the big Z man. His physique at bantam is like a Thomas Hearns at 147 with Zarate having a devastating left hook as well and no durability questions IMO.
