Will we ever have a true atg in modern era?

Andre Ward an ATG?

Although starting in Canada, LL is a British ATG.

 

Lennox Lewis.

Joe Calzaghe.

Prince Naseem Hamed: was the biggest thing to happen to boxing since Muhammad Ali & Mike Tyson.

What the **** has Andre Ward done..? that Nigel Benn, Chris Eubank never did...?

Andre Ward could get beat by Chad Dawson and he will be forgotten.

We have got plenty of all-time great fighters.

 

Lewis - too many names missing? Haha....

Swap a 2002 Tyson for either a 1996 Tyson, or Wlad at that time... it's the only way it could have realistically been better.

Bowe would have beat him in 1992.

 

Lewis is an ATG.

 

Calzaghe is an ATG at supermiddle as well, probably.

 

But in a "meh" type of way!!

 

Lewis to many names missing?.

Lewis is a ATG, Calzaghe edges in.

 

Lennox and Joe C are ATG's.

Hatton will be remembered.

 

Too many internet heroes about for any modern fighter to be respected as a ATG. If the internet had been around for ever, Joe Louis would have been a bum SRR would have lost to many to be great. Marciano = protected etc.
Lennox Lewis is a ATG. I suspect that so should calzaghe be. I would also offer up Froch. Being ATG does not mean unbeaten.

 

Yeah we need to look at our criteria, boxing has changed and the fighters don't fight every month or 2. It's a shame but if a guy is getting big wins on a regular basis then it shouldn't stop him being a ATG.

Hopkins is one from the modern era.

 

..

 

B-Hop & Pac for me.

 

Lewis is an all time great. I did not always like the way he fought but he took on the best of his era with the exception of Bowe though the fault was not his more Rock Newman's. Calzaghe who I am not a fan of at all has to be considered great as it would be churlish not to. However I hold Hatton in more esteem than Calzaghe as he fought peak Money Mayweather and Pacman. Yes he got outclassed by them but he beatband lost to only the very best. Barry McGuigan's legacy suffers greatly for avoiding the career defining fight with Azumah Nelson. As you know I have high hopes for Ajose Olusegun who takes on the toughest fighter in the division Matthyse on the 8 of Sept in Las Vegas at the Hard Rock Cafe and Hotel. I think he has the ability and desire to represent Nigeria, Africa and the United Kingdom as a truly great fighter. Opportunity has been denied him until now but this great fighter has what it takes. In my opinion Matthyse is much better than the Danny Garcia's and Amir Khans of this world

 

I think David Price has the most potential, if hes brought up right and either avoids the Klitschkos or catches one when they are proper old he could dominate the heavyweight division for a long time
