Good post. However Ketchel should have been above Zale. And I believe that Adamek will surpass Zale in a next few months

Thats impressive. Can you imagine any today's MW decking any of the Klitschko bros? Or even David Haye

Quite impossible.

 

Ziggy Pietrzykowski was a beast. Chychła was good.

 

I thought we produced awful fighters but Poland manages to top us, Adamek and Golota, oh dear.

The hype and the thug.

 

Native born, if he keeps up his winning ways, it would be Adamek..Polish American, it would be Ketchel followed by Zale.

 

Pope John Paul wuz a pretty good boxer back in the day, a solid athlete, an intellectual warrior...

 

Golota for now...

Ademek got a bright future.

What criteria are you going by, man? Do title challenges count more than wins or does the bronze medal count more than championships?:? Two-division titlist, same amount of wins but in three different weight classes, less losses...just-...I mean-...wha-...???

 

Exactaly. Adamek surpassed Golotas legacy that night he won the WBC title....Also the night Brewster killed him

 

Adamek is also european championships bronze medalist.... Nothing big, but shows he was a decent ameteur too.

 

To be completely fair to Gołota, the Byrd fight was an outright robbery. He should have won that fight hands down, therefore catching the HW title. Then there was the Ruiz fight, which was closer, but none the less Gołota got jobbed in that fight as well. :-(

 

If Adamek can beat Haye than ill put him ahead of Dariusz. Even now id say hes a very close 2nd.
