This is clearly a troll list. There are some huge problems with it. First of all, Dempsey is ranked above Marciano, when all the discussions that we have seen have ended up on a clear cut decision that Marciano > Dempsey. So straight off, that's crazy. I think Frans Botha is a little low. Resume', man! He fought everybody! But OK, I guess you are allowed your opinion :roll: Also Joe is too low. Floyd shouldn't be on the list.
The only thing great about him is his dominant streak and thats all down to being protected by K2 management , on top of facing the worst bunch of small , non moving bums the division has ever produced ... And he still looked boring and unimpressive against them all. And he still had to clinch and maul them to death. He may have a great record. Buts he's nowhere near a great boxer.
I love it when a division/era becomes s**** as soon as It starts being dominated by an Eastern/European. HW first, then MW, LHW is next if/when Kovalev/Beterbiev beats Stevenson and Ward, featherweight follows as soon as Lomachenko peaks
He's not a great inside fighter or swarmer, but outside he's as good as it gets. You just need to look at the list of guys he's knocked over for going on 20 years.
Top 5 lock. Too dominant, too consistent, too much longevity, and too wide a range of styles faced to keep him out for me. He's also faced every top contender he should've, shown resiliency to bounce back from losses and improve, and unified whenever possible.
