    I think the list is pretty spot on ( I would say that though)

    Barrera is my Fav boxer on the list. The hook come uppercut with his left is a beauty, and how he adpated his game and fooled us all with the way he beat Hamed was super (hamed was one of my favs at the time). thats a pure craftsman.

    Mayweather was so dominant that he had 2 life and death struggles with Castillo. Toney ranks ahead of PBF because he has the better resume. Also, Hopkins ranks ahead of Jones.

    I like the list bu there are 2 things that I would change.

    1. I would flip B-Hop and Pac as I think that PAC has accomplished a little more against better oposition in comparison to B-Hop. They both definately legends in my book.

    2. Where is Chico, IZZY, Marquez & Calderon??

    Calzaghe, Hamed, and Hatton don't belong in this conversation in my most honest opinion.

    Considering that Hatton was arguably Mayweather best win and opponent, it makes you look kinda gay when talking about Mayweather.

    As a Brit, I have had the pleasure of watching Jones Hopkins Mayweather from an early stage of their careers via my dodgy Satellite card.

    Other Brits havent had to see alot of the fighters mentioned due to very poor coverage during the 90's of the major players, hence why alot think Calzaghe is like Ray Robinson.

    Its called TV propaganda...Sports Network Propaganda. U cant blame them.


    But having viewed all the great fighters of the last 15 years I thought that was a fair list.

    Toney is above Calzaghe because of his opposition and people forget he fought 20 times in 2 years!!!! when he was the champ.
