    got a feeling carl froch will be added to the list after he gets eliminated from the super 6 touney.

    no way he's getting thru that draw. :lol:

    Some fantastic responses, fellas:good. On the general, people seem to be going for more recent fighters: Bowe, Taylor, Hopkins, Mayweather.

    I specifically had JT in mind when I started the thread but I don't like to 'load' threads I start with my opinion(s) as it sort of defeats the object of starting one in the first place, IMO.

    To an extent I would say Naseem Hamed. I wouldn't say he become boring, etc, but after a few title defences he seemed to lose a little of his desire and just coasted on natural talent more so than hard work ethics in training.

    dare I say it......

    Joe Calzaghe.

    There'll never be a real consensus on how good he was, which is bizarre for a 46-0 fighter.

    George Foreman.

    Mike Tyson.
