Top 50 All-time Great Boxers - Accomplishment, Ability and Impact!

So, Fitz doesn´t get in because he´s a wifebeater but SRR is number one.

 

I don't think the "world title" status of Pacquiao's fight with Margorito should mean a thing in historical context.
Pacquiao is certainly great, but I think these "weight-jumping" achievements get overrated.
For a start, Pacquiao could probably fight me and some organization would sanction it as for the HEAVYweight championship of the world.
Also, he's a genuine 140 - 145 pound man now, and should be judged as such. Not by how much he weighed years ago.

Pacquiao is certainly an all-time great though.

 

Abe Attell should be on the list.

 

Ruby Fitzsimmons doesn't get in,,,,,,,,,,because he's not Top 5.

Did you ever meet his wife,,,,,,,,,,you'd beat her too!!

Sugar Ray Robinson was not a negro,,,,,,,,,,he was Hawaiian.

 

Your reasoning is really great.

 

'The Greatest Draft-Dodger should be in their.

 

I like your list, overall good list. but floyd and jones must be higher, aside from that, good list.

 

:rofl

 

Actually, yeah, I hear that. I was expecting more like 1. Pacquiao 2. Donaire 3. Morales...

 

dempsey, stallone or john wayne

 

McLarnin destroyed Corbett worse than anyone Pac did at 147.

Marquez may end up being the best fighter Manny faced in his career...he was far from dominate in either of their fights.

McLarnin was almost as much as a novice as Labarba was..in fact some would argue he was even greener, as he was an unheralded teenager compared to the well respected amatuer star and olympic gold medallist in Labarba. No one seriously acts as those are up with his best wins anyway, only McGrain.

As usual asero your arguments have more holes than swiss cheese.

 

if you based it on who people have heard off i reckon at least 75 people out of 100 you asked on the streets would name Ali or Tyson. The other 25 will have watched boxing and may name Marciano, Louis, Robinson. You may also get some current popular names depending on where you live such as Pacman, Mayweather, Hatton, Calzaghe etc etc.

Boxing just isnt that popular these days for the generals to have a clue about the sport

 

You could take Floyd Mayweather and put him in Grand Central Station, NYC
at 5:00 PM, and nobody would know who the hell he was.

The 'Q' rating says,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,it starts with Muhammad Ali.
and ends with George Foreman, a very-close second.
