    Personally I consider these active boxers to be ATGs

    Wladimir Klitschko - could become GOAT contender if he beats Fury, Joshua and Wilder
    Marco Huck - definitely cruiserweight ATG, a real warrior and true fighter
    Kovalev
    Andre Ward
    GGG
    Cotto
    Pacquiao
    Lomachenko
    Rigondeaux
    Chocolatito

    Tyson Fury is 2 good wins away from ATG status
    The winner of Wilder vs Povetkin will have a massive claim for ATG
    Viktor Postol if he beats Crawford and adds some other good win
    Glowacki is getting there

    Roy Jones Jr
    Hopkins
    Floyd
    ^^ these guys are kinda still active

    The winner of Wilder Povetkin for all time great. I am not sure about that but maybe the winner win the next couple after that also.

    Lomachenko, GGG, Postol, Wilder, Povetkin, Rigondeaux, Glowacki, Fury are not even close to being ATG's yet, a few of them could be in the running soon. But they could all potentially be derailed.

    ATG is a looser term than I thought it was.

    Many of these guys are HOF'ers but ATGs? nah.

    Lomachenko is an ATG amateur.

    I can't take this anymore.

    In my mind all time greats are names like Ray Robinson, Henry Armstrong, Archie Moore, Ali, Harry Greb, Carlos Monzon, Sam Langford, Willie Pep to name just a few that spring to my tired mind.

    I do not mean to be disrespectful but if you are seriously telling me Fury is "two wins away from being an ATG".

    And "Wilder Povetkin winner has a massive claim to be an ATG"

    Then you are completely clueless, do yourself a favour and go and read a little about boxing history, if you are seriously saying those things and you are not trolling you honestly need to do some research on the sport of boxing.

    Please don't mention Wilder. He fought Gavern in his 32 th fight and his best win is Stiverne.

    None to be honest. Some of potential to be, but I can't think of anyone who's there yet.
