    Pernell Whitaker is leaps and bounds above. I've never seen somebody win an Olympic Gold medal in such fashion !!!!!

    The footage ESPN showed of Holyfield as an amateur looked great but it was limited, probably not top 10 even but he looked very good

    How could I have forgotten Laszlo Papp? Greatest Hungarian boxer of all time (its not saying much :lol: but its Papp, then a massive gap until you find the 2nd best Hungarian boxer, which is probably Erdei).
