I mean if its your list, It's your opinion. There is no right or wrong answer thats why theres so many of them. but people like: Henry Armstrong Sam Langford Harry Greb Willie Pep Roberto Duran They are more deserving of a higher spot than, Tyson Foreman RJJ and JCC.
Its a list that i found...I stated that... I did think that it was pretty good and also mention that Willie Pep or Duran should be on there as well...Okay maybe not Foreman RJJ and JCC in the 10 but all those cats were sick with it....JCC & RJJ top 15 on mine though...Good reply.
I've definitely seen worse lists, for sure. I think both Duran and Pep should be top 10, yeah, but guys like Henry Armstrong, Ezzard Charles, Sam Langford, and Harry Greb are all guarantees for a top 10 spot imo(those 4 along with Robinson are my personal top 5). Armstrong is still relevant enough in current boxing with Pacquiao being compared to him so often that leaving him off is pretty much a glaring ommission. Ezzard Charles isn't known much by the casual fan, but Archie Moore is on the list and if you just look at Moore's record you'll see that Charles beat him all 3 times they fought. There isn't any footage of Greb, so that's understandable, and Langford fought 100 years ago and never became champion, so a casual fan not knowing about him is also understandable. Chavez at #3 and Pernell Whitaker not even getting an honorable mention is a big problem as well.
JCC and RJJ can be top 25, they were great fighters, but top 10 is seriously hard to crack. Foreman has no place anywhere near the top 20 for me personally, he had a very short reign at HW and was pretty unspectacular. Same with Tyson also, great in terms of legacy in how he is remembered but his resume is seriously weak and a really short stint at the top gets you no where near the ATG's.
Okay...Dont think Hatton is there yet...Needs to beat elite fighters...Tszyu was elite but i personally thought he was shot at that time.
I think the very fact Hatton is in capitals tells us its purely based on him being a fan! I'm a big Hatton fan myself and he probably wouldn't get into my top 100, however much I wanted him in there.
Lol...True, Hatton is a great fighter im also a fan but on the all time p4p remains to be seen... If he can beat Pacman and maybe a rematch win over FMJ then you can start to mention it but it doesnt look promising.
The list is ok but Roy jones isn't that high on my list and Leonard and Hagler needs to change spots...
Yea if he wins Pac theres no reason why that wouldn't get him into the top 100, I mean Pac is p4p number 1 and favorite for the fight, either way you look at it its a massive win. Hatton can't beat Floyd, he's just all wrong for him.
