    1. Mike Tyson
    2. Sugar Ray Leonard
    3. Roy Jones Jr.
    4. Bernard Hopkins
    5. Lennox Lewis
    6. Evander Holyfield
    7. Oscar Dela Hoya
    8. Julio Cesar Chavez
    9. Floyd Mayweather

    It's your top ten pal. I put Lennox in there because he is probably the best heavyweight of all time. I only put Tyson above him because of what Tyson did for the sport whether it was bad or good publicity. I have only seen 6 Calzaghe fights. I was not impressed. He does not fall into my top ten. Prince Naseem would fall into my top 15

    There are some good lists here but surely you would have to be mad not to include Ali, Frazier or Foreman?

    If not for skill but at least for contributions to the sport.

    1. Ali (because he just is!)
    2. Tyson (because his domination during the 80's and excitment is unparalleled)
    3. Sugar Ray Leonard (Not a great story but just a fantastic boxer)
    4. Lennox Lewis (An amazing modern heavyweight)
    5. Joe Louis (What a fighter and wartime propaganda hero)
    6. Marvin Hagler (Hard *******)
    7. George Foreman (Number 2 in the greatest boxing heyday top 3)
    8. Marco Antonio Barrera (An almost perfect boxer and who didnt want to see him give Hamed a hiding)
    9. Joe Frazier (The 3rd of the champions forever)
    10. Evander Holyfield (I hate him but he's achieved so much.)
    10.

    definitely horrible.

    Guzman an ATG? :huh

    I'll just stick to old school..

    01. Ray Leonard
    02. Aaron Pryor
    03. Thomas Hearns
    04. Marvin Hagler
    05. Lennox Lewis
    06. Ricardo Lopez
    07. Alexis Arguello
    08. Roy Jones Jr
    09. Pernell Whitaker
    10. Mike Tyson

    Edit: I would put Duran at #1, but he started to fall in the 80's in which 15 of his 16 losses came..
