No way Chavez or Arguello are put ahead of Ike Williams..No way!! Or Beau Jack not listed...Beau Jack when at his peak would have given Duran hell...I saw him a prime Beau Jack whip Bob Montgomery Zivic,Armstrong etc...Sadly forgotten now ,but oh he could fight!!!
Monzon 7th?!?!!!??!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! atschatschatschatschatschatschatschatsch At least they appreciate Napoles.
well it was just from the past 50 years, greb was not in their timeline loche should be more than a mention to!
pffff, greb is barely a top 100 anyway:tong he beat a bunch of nobodies without health care or proper gyms.
a case could definitely be made. i think saldivar is getting sold a little short in that comparison because of 1)his size 2)mccallum's reputation of being the most avoided man of his era just another GLARING error is charles' placement at 14. just ridiculous
:good Truly great featherweight for sure, i hope i put him in my top feathers in the voting poll on here, can't remember though.
Ridiculous huh? "Jersey Joe Walcott is one of the finest technicians in boxing history"- Eddie Futch Eddie knows best! :good
