Who is the daddy of boxing?

All these guys in the same room?

It's Oscar!

He'd organise all the others off into elimination bouts and then fight the winner in a billion dollar bonanza!

 

Yes, what a great man.

Bottom.

 

Muhammad Ali.

 

I was thinking about saying Jack Johnson. I should have.
He certainly deserves a mention, but i havent seen enough footage of him to determine his personality. Just reading interviews and old fight clips.

 

Pick up a dictionary and look up "badass", there will be no definition there, just a picture of Jack Johnson.

 

Archie Moore would get the respect of everyone in the room. He was erudite, articulate and colorful in the way he expressed himself.

 

On second thought. The MAN in that room who would have got the feeling op AWE,by his comrades would have to probably be Joe Louis. Because NO ONE would have anything negative to say about him....His career motto should be "Mayhem with Modesty ".

 

Gene Tunney,,,,,,,,,,,,,he could outwit the whole bunch

 

:goodand he'd enter the room walking on his hands.

 

I left that part out.

 

the walking on his hands bit would explain those huge shoulders.you could be right though, he speaks, everybody else listens:good

 

SNV would trap all the other boxers in his immensly hairy back then take then to his cave in siberia. Like that beast in star wars.

 

His shoulders and arms were so freakishly muscled and thick..I've always thought he was an enormous lightheavy.

 

Yes, you're right BB..in thinking about it, Louis would be the most respected, revered man in the room...maybe the ultimate boxing legend.

 

Off somewhere in the room, no one hardly noticing him, and quiet throughout, would be Ezzard Charles...he would get my respect and attention, however, as would Floyd Patterson and Jersey Joe Walcott. They'd all be in the "quiet corner". What dignified gentlemen they were.
