    Mr Greb is also my number 1. But I have no problem with Robbo, Greb, Armstrong, Langford, Ezzard Charles or Fitzsimmons as the GOAT.

    There's no fighting footage of Greb exists.

    Robinson looks like one of the greatest fighters on film.

    This fact seals the deal for many people.

    this, sugar ray robinson is the greatest fist fighter the world has ever seen, and we only get to see him as a middleweight, when he was past his prime. his welterweight prime can only be recounted in articles.

    :deal He looks amazing on film. He seemed possess every tool, speed, power, technique and an iron chin.... Honestly I don't know too much about Greb other than his mindblowing record, low KO rate although typical in his era.

    Robinson has as good a case as anybody. I have Greb #1, but you're not going to find me arguing anybody who has Robinson, Langford, or Armstrong instead. You might be able to throw Ezzard Charles into that mix as well.

    Didn't see yours before posting :lol: I didn't mention Fitzsimmons in my post, but I really like the shout-out. I find it very tough to keep him out of my top 5. Amazing accomplishments.
