top ten fighters

can you tell me your top ten fighters ever. i would apreciate it. thanks.
THESES ARE MINE:
1.mike tyson = ive always loved to watch tyson. great puncher and ko's
2.arturo gatti = becasue of ward trilogy
3.sugar ray robinson = amazing knock-outs
4.nigel benn = great knockouts
5.muhammad ali = The greatest
6.oscar de la hoya = always fights the best
7.marvin hagler =wicked puncher
8.roy jones jr = still good to watch
9.ricky hatton = my fav boxer today. wicked body puncher
10.floyd mayweather = the best P4P today. wicked

1. sugar ray robinson- the best pfp ever, fought the best competition and beat them
2. muhamed ali- probably the best heavyweight ever.
3. ricardo lopez- unbelievable talent.
4. julio cesar chavez- one of the most devastating body punchers.
5. marvin hagler- other than the leonard fight he was a machine, just buzzed through his division, constant pressure fighter, iron chin, good puncher, knew when to call it quits.
6. roberto duran- at lightweight and junior welter he was amazing, his fights withe esteban dejesus showed wgat he was made of.
7. sugar ray leonard- smooth boxer/puncher with amazing skills.
8. joe louis- huge puncher.
9. aaron pryor- give him the "special mix " and he was unbeatable. great puncher.
10.evander holyfield- unbelievable heart, gave us his best every fight.


those are my top ten based on the competition they fought and their achievments.
i know people will say where is rjj and pbf but sorry in my opinion these guys where great foer their time but didnt have th competiton to really prove they where greats. pbf still can change that though and i hope he does soon, because for him the compition is there.

I choose the boxers that i love to watch box like tyson and gatti. if i based the list on my top ten boxers of greatness ever it would be a totally different list. simillar to yours with ray robinson and ali at the top. cheers

not in any order

Larry holmes = for hes boxing skills heart and one of best jabs in hw history and for hes acheivements

Aaron pryor = for hes workrate such an exciting fighter to watch and granite chin

Muhammad ali = he made sport what it is now hes heart and great boxing skills are truly inspiring and beating best of the best

Sugar ray robinson = one of greatest boxers ever to live with hes lightning speed and excellent achievements he makes my list for sure  ;)

Nigel benn = who can forget the old dark destroyer such an exciting fighter with great heart and great power who can get tired of watching old nigel benn

Joe calzaghe = great fighter with great combinations excellent workrate and one of best smws ever

Willie pep = the guy is so slick he won a round without even throwing a punch he makes my list for one of best skills ive ever seen in the ring

Roy jones = would this man ever lost if he wouldnt moved up to heavyweight who knows the guy was great one of quickest hands ive seen in boxing and one of best reflexes he makes my list

Sugar ray leonard = he beat everybody hearns hagler duran benitez and what a great talent this man was

Evander holyfield = when chips holyfield has to be greatest in crisis with hes excellent heart great chin and one of most action packed fights ive ever seen in hw divison plus great cruiserweight fight ever he makes my list

Whitaker was a defensive genius who made his opponents look stupid in the ring, nobody could hit him and he was at his best in his biggest fights. He was robbed against Ramirez, Chavez, and De La Hoya. In his prime nobody could beat him, Even though Tito is my second favorite fighter he fought a Whitaker that was strait out of Rehab and far beyond his prime but he was still able to win three rounds and wobble Tito in the 6th round, the guy was fantastic. Watch the Chavez, Mcgirt 1 and 2 fights. It's amazing how he shut fighters down.

He was very hard to fight and had great tallent. I dont think boxers new how to fight him because you never new what he was going to do next. I not sure if he was robbed against de la hoya because i have seen the fight a couple of times and think de la hoya edged it. It was arguably de la hoyas hardest fight though. I am a big De la hoya fan though.

Yea he did not dominate Oscar but he knocked Oscar down, landed 50 more punches in the fight, and dictated the tempo of the rounds, this was all coming from an older smaller fighter in Whitaker, but this fight was close and was not the type of robbery that the Chavez, Ramirez fights were.

I havent seen the chavez and remirez fights. Are they good

yes i saw foreman vs morrison. tommy actually showed the world he was a pretty good boxer that night and pretty easily outpointed big george. i was shocked i had foreman to win by tko but morrison
moved and boxed nicely, thats when i saw that he had the talent to be great but the weak chin would always haunt him.

ok heres my list the top 10 best fighters of all time(in no particular order)

1-mike tyson
2-marvin hagler
3-ali
4-jack dempsey
5-sugar ray robinson
6-joe luis
7-thomas hearns
8-rocky marciano
9-jack johnson
10-larry holmes

I'm a Roy Jones fan, but he was always so much more talented than his opponent that he rarely had competitive fights.  Most his fights were one-sided.

In no order:

Muhammad Ali - greatest of all time ;D
Joe Calzaghe - exciting to watch, fast hands, amazing workrate, one of the best in his division ever
Ricky Hatton - exciting, devastating body attacks, unreal workrate
Bernard Hopkins - not really exciting but a brilliant fighter, beat the best in his division in his long reign
Naseem Hamed - cocky but entertaining, quality fighter
Marco Antonio Barrera - loads of heart, has showed us many great performances, legend
Oscar DeLaHoya - brilliant fighter, multi weight champ, great guy outside the ring, one of the best of the 90's
Roy Jones - Phenomonal speed and reflexes, beat the best over the years, multi weight champ
Lennox Lewis - cleared up the heavyweight division, beat all the best
Kostya Tszyu - unreal power, great champion, beat th best there was

well dont like him as person and i think he is way overrated never liked him and things he done in ring was a disgrace if u guys like him good luck to you but i never have liked him

as a person i dont like him either, but i like him in-ring because he was destructive but also he slipped punches so easily, his head movement was un-parralled and had that aura of invincibility, i do like him but as soon as he got k.o by buster i think his stock fell and i lost alot of respect, 1986-1990 Tyson imo would give anyone a good match

tyson was a great boxer but after the douglas loss he lost it abit
