    Well I'm putting my faith in Eastside Boxing Forums for THE KNOWLEDGE :lol:

    I can't be everywhere all the time....youtub....wikiped...

    I'm old school. I'll learn from people(message forum) and I'll wait to see full fights before I pass judgement e.g. no you tube.

    Thanks.

    Just do what Sweet Pea done and steal your uncles 'world encyclopedia of boxing' book. It's about two feet thick and contains the facts and records of all.

    At least try to justify those claims. There isn't a chance in hell Winky outranks McCallum, nor does Mosley outrank Trinidad IMO.

    I'm telling you now, shunning Youtube would not do you well. There's a wealth of footage (constantly growing) that has never been available to previous generations, and it would really help you out in your quest for footage, as well as your wallet if you don't wish to shell out the bucks every time you're looking to check a fighter out.

    Thanks for your lists people. Much appreciated!!

    Tyson beat Spinks in 1988, but he didn't meet any lists. I guess I can't ignore tyson like a lot of people can't, but I suppose his later antics really hurt his legacy.

    Joe Calzaghe owned the supermiddleweight division for a decade and then beat up on two Amero-bums in Hopkins and Jones at lightheavy to solidify his greatness. His best and most competitive work was in Europe, obviously, where he had some true competition but had to travel to America to spank some overated Amerobums to get his due recognition from the biased American jingoistic press. He is top of any serious P4P discussion in the last 20 years. Both Marvelous Marvin Hagler and Sugar Ray Leonard have recognized and applauded his once in a generation skillset and those two hate each other and rarely agree on anything. Nuff said!!!
