Greatest Of All Time; at All Weight Classes
Ok. This took some time but it's still very rough and can be subject to change but heres what Ive got so far:
Heavyweight- Joe Louis
Lt. Heavyweight- Archie Moore
Cruiserweight- Evander Holyfield
Super Middleweight- Chris Eubank
Middleweight- Carlos Monzon
Lt. Middleweight- Nino Benvenuti
Middleweight- Carlos Monzon
Welterweight- Sugar Ray Robinson/ Henry Armstrong ???
Light Welterweight- Aaron Pryor
Lightweight- Benny Leonard
Super Featherweight- Alexis Arguello
Featherweight- Willie Pep :)
Super Bantamweight- ???
Bantamweight- Eder Jofre
Suer Flyweight- Khaosai Galaxy
Flyweight- Jimmy Wilde
Light Flyweight- ???

I do feel like i'm forgetting some but like I said, this is real rough. I'm not to sure who has been great at Light Flyweight and Super Bantamweight though. I could use a little help on those. What do ya think?

Re: Greatest Of All Time; at All Weight Classes
Did you make this up on the spot?
First of all there are plenty of guys who beat Joe Louis for greatest all time, and guys who would destroy him.
1. Ali 2. Tyson 3. Foreman 4. Holyfield 5. Lewis 6. Frazier 7. Homles, and it goes on
2. I can name three guys better at LHW than Archie who deserve it more Jones, Conn, Charles.
3. SMW is easily Jones he would have beaten EUbank up and down the street.
4. Hagler or HOpkins are both better than Monzon.
5. Lightmiddleweight I say WInky beats him and so does Leonard, Hearns, early Roy.
6. Henry wasn't that good at welterweight and though he won the title doesn't put him at the top you have to have Leonard up there with RObinson
7. Pernell Whitaker would be in my books or Mayweather
lightweight: Duran is easily more successful than Leonard, and I think Mosley beats him as well.
Super feather weight: Mayweather Jr.
featherweight- I agree

I think he means on what they achieved not in 1 on 1 that they would beat everyone at there weight classes
Re: Greatest Of All Time; at All Weight Classes
Archie Moore, Ezzard Charles, and Bob Foster were all close to call I will give you that
Hagler could take the number one spot. I wont argue that but a close call again.
No way does SRL beat out SRR ever at Welterweight. That one isnt changing. Armstrong was a great Welterweight too but I can see SRR being #1
.....I made the list pretty quickly so its not yet perfect

Exactly. What theyve acheived at that weight. Thats the ony reason you dont see Guys like SRL, Hearns etc. I think Ali would have beaten Louis but that doesnt matter

I said Leonard goes up there with Robinson they both acheived the most at the weight.
Re: Greatest Of All Time; at All Weight Classes
hes definately up there but i dont think hes above SRR at Welter. If enough people think i got it wrong ill change it though ;) my opinion could easily be off and Leonard was an amazing Welterweight
Re: Greatest Of All Time; at All Weight Classes
heavyweight is easy. Shannon Briggs. He was world heavywieght champion while fighting with a disease.
