    @Frank
    I get it.. Your edgy and cool because you go against the general public on who they view, so you have convinced me to change my list.

    My new top 5.

    1.Charlie Zelenoff
    2.Chuck Wempner
    3.Deontay Wilder
    4.Lou Bizzarro
    5.Tony Galento

    I think there is nothing wrong with the five you have chosen based upon your criteria i'm fine with it. I disagree that Armstrong is excluded and also think that you could include Ali, as you say. Charles?

    You're right, I didn't give you a list of fighters with better resumes, better skills, better legacies, better longevity, and better big wins. That is why I changed my list, I understood that those fighters I named just absolutely suck and their greatness is total fabrications, Instead I now understand that 5 fighters that rank along the lower end of the top 100(top 50 for Toney and McCallum) are better. In fact that is why I was inspired to find even less impressive boxers to be even edgyer and cooler..

    Robinson and Charles make my top 5. Fitz and Louis not far off though.

    No, I think they are too. I think he is a vastly improved poster all kidding aside, since he actually started watching the fights.

    I don't think Louis even comes close to top 5 status.

    Mine would be:


    Langford
    Robinson
    Greb
    Armstrong
    Ezzard Charles


    For me Charles has to be 5th and round out the top 5. :deal

    the thing I like most about Frank is his attitude to the sport.

    McCall is his goat because "at best you have a chance of pot shotting your way to a draw" :lol: quality stuff
