As I've said many times, I'm not much of a fan of the lb-for-lb concept. But given that it's there, I rank Ali as Number 1, alltime. You'll never see the likes of him again !
I like your placing of Ray Leonard. He lacks a long career, but gains much ground with his top 4 wins and skillset.
Sorry, dude. I wrote that after I read your 'Cooper' line. I just noticed your Foreman line. And I apologize to all ****wits the world over. You would have to take brain steroids for years and raise your game considerably to work your way up to ****wit level.
YEAH! Did you know that Michael Jordan MISSED over 50% of his shots? Wayne Gretzky won Stanley Cups in only 4 of his 22 seasons. Jerry Rice dropped over 400 passes! AND Jesus Christ had a lazy eye! Man those guys SUCK! Just out of curiousity guy, Who's your top HW?
6th. Though these days I'm actually tempted to put him higher. He used to be number 2, and gradually slipped to 6th, but now I think he should be higher.
Where do I rank Ali? My top ten: 1. Armstrong 1. Robinson 1. Sam Langford 4. Willie Pep 5. Joe Louis 6. Muhammad Ali 7. Roberto Duran 8. Benny Leonard 9. Jack Johnson 10. Jack Dempsey
