Do you agree with the list on askmen.com ? http://www.askmen.com/top_10/sports/top-10-pound-for-pound-fighters_10.html or the top 10 ko http://www.askmen.com/top_10/fitness/top-10-boxing-knockouts_10.html
Yes. Askmen is obviously the place to go to for in depth boxing analysis and historical overview. You do not need to kill yourself.
I was going to post the list out in full to save people clicking through the pages, but it's great flicking through them and looking at some the choices. I hope people do what I did and click on the link first before reading the comments here, because I got a genuinely great laugh when I saw Braddock at 6. Robinson is obviously okay in both being picked and the order. Duran is the only other who makes it in my own top 10, but he's far too high. Leonard, Ali and Louis are okay I suppose, although I think the latter two are too high. Johnson, Dempsey, Marciano are bad picks. De La Hoya makes me a question how much boxing the author has actually watched. Braddock made me lose faith in humanity altogether.
I didn´t know Frankenfrank finally overcame his obsession with David Tua. And I´m surprised to learn he is latino.
Nothing wrong with Marciano, but Braddock is an interesting one i would think hard about. It is hard to take these lists too serious without Fitzsimmons in them. Or Greb, Langford or Armstrong. I will say that I have never seen a list so slanted towards heavyweights. to be honest, i cant really see what criteria they have used to rank these fighters.
well at least he got some right, srr, ali, duran, louis and leonard should be in the top 10... but some other choices are unbelievable.. braddock and oscar being the most ridiculous... he actually sees oscar as the 4th best non-heavyweight ever..
