Who in their prime was the greatest out of these top crusierweights?

Why Haye or Enzo are on there is beyond me.

Holyfield, Gomez and Jirov imo.

 

Gomez by a bit over tony mostly because of more fights at the weight.

 

:happy

I agree with the order as well. Gomez was a phenomenal fighter, him vs. Holyfield is a superb historical matchup. Jirov was great as well.

 

Do you honsetly believe that?

 

*honestly*

 

Gomez was awesome at cruiser, nobody wanted to go near him.

 

Jim Toney never really did much as a champion at 190, but overall, he is the greatest fighter from the list....... Virgil Hill is greatly underrated...... :yep

MR.BILL

 

of that crop, i liked toney. when he beat jirov it was classic toney, fast hands, upperbody movement, and crisp counterpunching vs. a solid dangerous cruiser.

 

just a guy who destroyed him...other than that noone really

 

haye would beat jirov...TONEY did beat jirov I would gp holyfield, gomez, toney, qawi

 

Gomez, no questions asked he was in the division for a while and was without a doubt the best while he was there and the best since Holyfield. While he was champ and only held the WBC belt, noone had a doubt that he was the real champ at CW.

 

Fabrice Tiozzo gets no credit but had the belt 9 times and 5 years at CW and Light heavyweight.

Future Hall of Famer Dariusz Michalczewski also won/defended his WBO light heavyweight title 23 times and was a two weight division champion, winning titles as both a Light Heavyweight, and as a Cruiserweight.

 

Jirov deserves a mention.
