Thread: Who is the greatest in your opinion??

come on stick your necks out ppl im interested!

I still think its prime Roy Jones Jr. ... nobody ever p4p could havebeaten him IMO. People who would give him a close fight though would be Pernell Whitaker, Floyd Mayweather Jr., Mike Tyson

sweet sound opinion, im just waiting for the ali clan to arrive and sing theyr praises at me. lol :P

I gotta go Robinson, he was an uncrowned champ @ welter for about 4 years before actually getting a shot. Then put on top 5 time middleweight champion. Had to go against that.

obv i should make some picks, stupid ov me
i reckon:
roy jones jr - prime
ray leonard
(could well be PBF in the future but not now)
obv i suppose ali needs to be shown his respect, though i have my opinions.
b-hop
TITO

yer robinson is a fair pick i think ive seen like two of his fights but the way other boxers describe him as an influence i.e b hop i think he deserves his status

that and he went to war with lamotta who has to be up there somewhere along with marciano!!

Bro is your post about the greatest ever or who you've seen? Ali is aguably the best ever heavy, & possible amoung the top 2 or 3 ever. But for the greastest fight of all time I'll stick with Robinson. I fighter I'm sad I didn't get to see more of was Salvador Sanchez, I think he had the potential to be one of the greatest.

well technically to an extent it'll have to be that you've seen but i mean i like to think ive seen most of the best and defining fights so i can base my opinions on that, im not fussed about the answers whether you want your fighters to be p4p or best in a certain weight class.

also i'd stick de la hoya up there somewhere i like the man!!

i need to get me some kip. im out. peace.

P4P Compared to the rest of their era (just for you BK )

Ali, Robinson, Whitaker, Leonard and Louis are the greatest fighters ever imo. My GOAT list is a little different though because that factors in accomplishments.

MY FAVOURITE FIGHTERS ARE AS FOLLOWS

Jack Dempsey
Joe Frazier
'Iron' Mike Tyson
Chris Eubank
James 'Lights Out' Toney

I'd say its between a prime Roy Jones and Sugar Ray Robinson.
