Cheers mate yep old Graham was ducked by Eubank and others at that time because Herol Graham made you look terrible i mean how many people can say they lost razor thin decision to prime Mike McCallum.

Herol was class and i was a fan as a kid he used to have a jewerllers in Sheffield and every saturday i would wave to him while i was shopping with my mum and he always waved or spoke and said hi a great man

Robinson had to move from lightweight to welterweight to get a friggin title shot!!!!

Sam Langford is probably a good answer...as is Sonny liston (Patterson didn't HAVE to give him a shot)

But then again title holders that Floyd mayweather Jr COULD have fought at his various weight classes are also pretty high up there

Langford was avoided BIG TIME. From the sounds of it so was Charlie Burley.

my favorite prime fighters;

jack "death dealer" dempsey
"iron" mike "tiger" tyson
manny "phuk u up" pacquiao

I would say ALI best in their prime because..........................................w e never even seen a PRIME ALI he was robbed of his prime years so what we seen of him at his best wasnt even his prime, so there for a PRIME ALI is the GOAT!!!!!!!!!! hollaaaaaaaaaaar ;)

I'd have to say Sugar Ray Robinson or Joe Louis.

Cliche but SRR was all time best
Most avoided is imo Mike"The Body Snatcher"McCallum

SRR and Joe Louis were probably the best. The most dominate at one time, was probably Roy Jones Jr.

The best has to be SRR smooth skills-power he had the lot and so many fights also:)

Most avoided Joe Calzaghe , think about it 20 defences and yet to fight a good fighter :)

Seriously most avoided of modern time Winky Wright / Mike Mccallum both greats by the way .
