Who is the best fighter from every weight class?

They didn’t.

Nobody had Mike winning the first 4 straight.

Neither Lederman or Merchant.

It was a tough fight for Roy.

Mike was a genius.

Roy was very cautious.

That’s all you needed to say.

You always exaggerate.

Montell Griffin also caused Roy a lot of issues. It was very surprising at the time. But again, nobody but you thinks that it was a schooling.

You say the most ridiculous things.

 

The thing is that you can pick a lot of fighters and their best 3 years would look unbeatable. It's way too small sample of size to conclude that you're the best ever.

 

That's a lot of fights and fighters to be missing out on. I'm no expert (at all) on the lower weight classes but ignoring bantamweight alone is such a shame not to mention the incredible number of great fights in the super bantam/junior featherweight class - and a lot of those are pretty recent too. Really worth your time checking some of those out.

 

Maybe we should call him the best we've never seen.

 

Have to chuckle when I see Ketchel, Greb and Robinson (ww) listed.

 

And yet when Kalambay is listed...

 

Yeah, I see him with my own eyes how good

 

Awful pick.

Kalambay was sparked out by Nunn, who was a tier below B-Hop, Toney and certainly RJJ.

I'm not sure how you could make any compelling argument to rank him above Monzon and Hagler.

 

But you don't Robinson?

 

Not at welter no

 

He would have done nothing.
Prime Roy is invincible

 

SRR is the best WW, bar none

 

It's not about picking his best 3 years, it's about picking the version of him that was still commited/focused on boxing and trained properly, while having Rooney at his side.
If Tyson had kept focus and Rooney, I would have picked a longer time frame as his prime, regardless of whether he would losses or not in this time frame.
