    It's funny really because I put ali-foreman up as an afterthought since I regard it as ali's biggest victory but not one of the biggest victories.

    To be fair though he was an underdog and it probably is his defining moment.

    Definitely surprised by it being the leader.

    doesn't Hagler Hearns deserve to be in the mix at least?

    Personally though I'd go for Duran Leonard, though Ali Foreman is probably my favorite from the list

    I have no idea what that means. He's a boxer, he wouldn't be putting his career on hold by boxing another great fighter for a career's best purse.

    You've leapt from "low reward" to a career "on hold", neither makes any sense really.

    At that stage the possibility of him losing is pretty high. Of course it wouldn´t have derailed but him getting a shot at the title would probably have needed a while longer.

    Actually, my "leap" is no leap at all. It would have been a high risk low reward fight for the reason that the possibility of a pre-prime Robinson losing to a prime Burley is pretty high. And the money, even so it was a career high payday, wouldn´t have been good enough for the possible consequences of that.

    Given the circumstances surrounding this fight....I would have to go with Tyson-Douglass...Douglass mother just died and he was the 42-1 ( if my memory serves me correct) IMO that is a major hurdle to jump.

    So?

    Bodhi, it can't be a "low reward" fight if it's a career high payday.

    And where are you getting your time line from? Why is Robinson "pre-prime" in 1946? This is the year he won the title, he'd had seventy-five fights.

    So the resason Robinson didn't duck Burley is that he chose not to fight him because he might have lost?



    :lol:

    Come on, ffs. That's an actual definition of a dive.
