    I can't decide between Paul Pender or Carlos Teo Cruz.

    I know it's all opinion but surely there's only one answer.

    Lastnights events in Paris got me thinking, if Ali was at his peak nowadays and was the ignorant Muslim he often was I feel he would be hated the world over.

    Ali

    Dempsey was one of Boxings most highly skilled boxer/punchers. Far more skilled than either Frazier or Marciano. Not close.

    Yeah, good one. Only difference is that I got the feeling like it was completely natural for Camacho (especially based on random stories I've heard about him outside the ring) whereas with Hamed it sometimes felt like he was putting on for the cameras a bit.

    Alexis Arguello. I find dignity and class to be charimatic. Not being a loud mouth, a braggart, or having tassels on your shoes

    Ingo was quite popular in his day, but, no one comes close to Ali.

    Unquestionably Ali, anyone who says otherwise are just trying to seem like they know better as if it makes them edgy or something.

    Make no mistake, it certainly is Muhammad Ali.

    Naseem Hamed is one of the GOAT charismatic boxers.
