    Yeah, the internets are and always have been absolutely teeming with 'tards.

    3) Jack Dempsey
    4) Larry Holmes jab

    Maybe Larry Holmes,but more probably Aaron Pryor, due to media,and the whole Ray Leonard-ducked-him vibe some put out.

    Juan Manuel Marquez

    We're nearing the end of Juan Manuel Marquez's career at the highest level and he still has yet to acquire a signature victory. There's no denying that his skill set rivals his Mexican rivals, but his best wins are over significantly faded opposition and a not so spectacular operator in Juan Diaz. The apologists are quick to point out how Marquez was ducked by the best for a decade, and how he was poorly managed, but he also has to take responsibility for his losses against the likes of Freddie Norwood and Chris John.

    ...Is this you calling Marquez an ATG now, or are you disregarding the thread title just to start bitching about him? ...I'm just curious. Do you think he's not an ATG or an overrated ATG?

    As evidenced by my recent poll, the majority concluded that he was an ATG and therefore it's appropriate he be mentioned in here I feel.

    I still love me some Jack Johnson but yeah people have blurred the line between boxing significance and social significance. And he still was a great fighter, just not the untouchable entity some would make him out to be.

    More importantly is that the lovely Sasha Grey in your avatar?

    Yes. That's where I'm at with him. Especially the highlighted line.

    Holy ****, that turned out rather large. Why do they always act like you can resize...but they never actually let you resize within the post. Insanity.
