Which of these fighters is the greatest one?

RJJ No Contest

 

imo in this order.

Manny top 30atg
Pernell top 30

Floyd top 40-50

Roy top 50
Hopkins top 50-70

 

Manny cos of how far he's come not just in the ring but in life.

To be poor without oppurtunity in any palce ain't easy, but Manny's come from real poverty to almost becoming a president.

I know the *****s are gonna jump all over this but it's pretty ****in amazing.:shock:

 

I have Manny and pernell there too. I just say top 30 to appease the ol'timers.

 

Whitaker top 15 ATG
Jones Jr Top 20
Hopkins, Pacquiao, Floyd- Top 40 ATG

 

1. Whitaker
2. Jones
3. Pacquiao
4. Mayweather
5. Hopkins

 

Exactly, followed by Floyd. :deal


LMAO on Pac votes. :rofl:rofl:rofl

 

Pernell

 

They're all great in one way or another


Jones - superhuman athletic ability
Whitaker - defensive mastery, skill off the charts
Mayweather - same as above
Pac - unparalleled conqueror of multiple weight classes
Hopkins - unusual longevity at the top

 

1 Whitaker (no doubts about this position)
2 Pac
3 RJJ
4 Floyd
5 Hop (no doubts about this position)

For me it is very hard to rate Pac, RJJ and Floyd. Their achievements are very close. I give advantage to Pac fights against the Mexican greats and RJJ wins against Toney and Hop. I think that Floyd can surpass Pac and RJJ but we have to wait for them all to retire.

 

What is it with *****s, they understand only technique but not heart and grit.

 

Yeah, because all boxers grow up rich and privileged and Pacquiao is one of the few rags to riches boxers, right?

 

Heart and grit? You mean when Pac walked from the biggest fight of his life because of needles?
