Who has the best resume in history of pro boxing?

Not even remotely close.

Harry Greb.

 

Robinson or Armstrong for me. I have all the respect in the world for Floyd and I think he is a great fighter but he didn't have to win on the road and fight multiple times a month like Robinson and Armstrong did. He beat some amazing fighters but being the money draw he got to call the shots and put himself in the best position to win. Robinson and Armstrong did not have that luxury.

 

Ali for me. Hes at least got 3 massive scalps that we,re pretty much at there most fearsome in liston, foreman and frazier. Add norton and lyle to that as well as patterson and a few other big names. Its hard to find a better resume ever.

Without ali i,m not sure anyone would have stopped liston and foreman in their tracks. Both looked almost unbeatable when he beat them.

Floyd was great but it was a more cynical business when he came along. Canelo was young, marquez was dragged up a weight and mayweather came in above weight for it, mosely was older, oscar wss older. Ricky was above his natural weight class. He waited till pacman wasn,t quite as good. As the man said himself...timing is the most important thing in boxing. Floyd as good as he was had the cards massively stacked in his favour. Boxing was a lot more cynical today. You,ve got business men making business decisions nowadays. Floyd was a great fighter. Still reckon 2 or 3 from his cv would have beat him at their best. He just picked the right time. The three would be mosely, oscar and possibly pacman. Tbf to him he did go through the weights. No srgumeng he wasn,t great...his business decisions we,re better tho.

 

Vitali Klitschko.

the only fighter to win the 2 fights he lost.

 

Robinson or Armstrong.

Respect to Greb, Ali, FMJ, Chavez, Leonard, and even Whitiker if you give him the Chavez win like he deserved.

 

Sugar Ray Leonard. He beat the other 3 from the fab 4.

 

For me, Rocky Marciano does.

 

Pacquiao. He was an underdog yet he is still winning

 

A debate can be made for any of Ali, Leonard and Lewis to have the best resume.

 

Have you ever heard about Robinson, Greb, Armstrong, Duran, Charles? Lewis' resume isn't even top 30, let alone top 3 of all time

 

How about Marcel Cerdan ? Nearly 120 bouts, only 4 losses. Hall of fame too. Always found his story fascinating.

 

Harry Greb, Henry Armstrong, Gene Tunney, Bob Fitzsimmons, Sam Langford, Sugar Ray Robinson...

 

Greb, Robinson or Armstrong. Shout to Langford as well.

Leonards is amazing too, very tip heavy but maybes didnt have the amount of fight to stand up with the fighters from previous generations.
