Top 100 All-Time Greats: Post your list here...

does any one of you have their personal list of 100 greatest boxers in history. please post it here as a comparison or check on my list..

..i'll post my updated rankings..
This is my personal list of top 100 All Time Great Boxers.
This is my personal list of top 100 All Time Great Boxers.
personally i use this criteria:

80% accomplishment and historical significance - this
invloves fights with the fellow all-time greats, titles
held, punching power and boxing skills displayed, dominance and
longetivity.

20% timeliness and contribution to the growth of the sport- this also includes mainstream popularity.
Tyson is great but his legacy suffers because it can not
stand the test of time. Monzon's longetivity is matched
by hopkins thus monzon's rankings would go
down. henry armstrong legacy of jumping in weight in a year
is unmatched of more than 50 years...thats so long and he
deserves to be in the top 2 ATG.

i'm presently working on it and i'll be finished by monday..i'll post my rankings..

I think its pretty much impossible to do an accurate top 100 list, especially considering your bound to forget alot of fighters. And alot of the old fighters don't have much footage or no footage at all.

it's only as personal list and of course it would be that accurate but through the inputs of various posters we can come up more or less pretty good list..im using bert sugar and the ring ratings as a guide..

Its impossible. I seriously can make a list of the worst. LOL
Too many great fighters to fit into that tiny box!

I'd have a hard time thinking of 100 greats let alone putting them in order:p

Look forward to your list though asero that should be interesting.

100 is too many. i can probably do a top 10.

I'll have a go

1. Sugar Ray Robinson
2. Roberto Duran
3. Matt Skelton
4. ....
5. ...


i'll finish it later.

Well I'll try based only off what ive seen for myself and not what i've been told....

1- SRR
2- RJJ
3- PERNELL
4- SSM
5- PBF
6- ALI
7- LOUIS
8- Barerra
9- lennox
10- SRL
11- holyfield
12- TONEY
13- bhop
14- oscar


this is impossible...havent seen enough of the older guys their fights are hard to come by not to mention the only ones people put up are of them winning. So i used my list based the fighters who i've seen the most of..and even though ive seen fights on the other guys like duran,pep,armstrong, saddler, moore, chavez, ezzard, greb, fitz,

i haven't seen enough to personally rate them high. and i don't go off what the old historians say because they're biased towards the old era guys anyway.

I totally agree, you took the words from my mouth actually.

All list are subjective. For anyone that does not know the meaning of the word, here is the explanation Subjectivity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Every list is going to be an opinion that is subjective. If I were to pick a fight that was a legitimate draw and I'd follow one fighter more than the other, I most likely would pick the fighter I followed as the winner. Example: Marquez / Pacquiao I.

I would be interested in seeing a comprehensive list that was based on a point system like BoxRec Ratings Description - Boxrec Boxing Encyclopaedia

There are things to consider that can only be subjective. They are not calculated into Boxrec's formula i.e. When fighters go past their prime and a lesser fighter wins. When a fighter fails to defend his title against other top rated fighters. When a fight is killed in the ring... (nah... forget that one) Fighters may have had injuries or had been weight drained. Anyway you get the point...

100 is too many. try counting 100 pennies and you'll say "fak it" after counting penny #43. top 15 maybe.

Ray Robinson one hundred times

It maybe easier if we all just done the top 10 fighters in each weghtclass, that way it would be easier to do a top 100 list.

The ONLY reason to disrespect a system of facts is to distort TRUTH

Britkid did his top 100 90's

I like his 80's list better than his 90's altho both are good.

I have always said the ATG system has been terrible because historians have to idolize the past it happens in every sport, it happens in every subject. The past hyperbolized to the point legend becomes "reality"

That being said I will still try make the best list I can with help from Bert Sugar and his views of some guys that came before my time and before they had extensive clips of fighters. I mean regardless of him being a crackpot, he definitely talked to guys who saw these people fight, and he definitely saw a lot of these guys most haven't seen fight.

Think you should try to get like say 20 greats form each era then try to form it but some are tough because we have never seen them fight.

What the hell thats insane and i thought my boxing knowledge was starting to get better, its shame i come here a bit too late and never got a chance to talk to Britkid properly. I would of learnt alot off him.

Thats all i got so far on the list i keep going later love to hear about what you have to say on the list i got so far if want to comment

This is my personal list of top 100 All Time Great Boxers.
personally i use this criteria:

80% accomplishment and historical significance -
thisinvloves fights with the fellow all-time greats, titles
held, punching power and boxing skills displayed, dominance and
longetivity.

20% timeliness and contribution to the growth of the sport-
this also includes mainstream popularity.
Tyson is great but his legacy suffers because it can not
stand the test of time. Monzon's longetivity is matched
by hopkins thus monzon's rankings would go
down. henry armstrong legacy of jumping in weight in a year
is unmatched of more than 50 years...thats so long and he
deserves to be in the top 2 ATG.

Good effort but i think a few of the newer fighters are getting a bit shafted. Ricardo Lopez should be higher and so should Floyd Mayweather, there just a few that stand out. I'll have a proper look later when i get sometime, but its good effort anyway its very hard to make a top 100 list let alone trying to put them in order.

This is my personal list of top 100 All Time Great Boxers.
personally i use this criteria:

80% accomplishment and historical significance - this
invloves fights with the fellow all-time greats, titles
held, punching power and boxing skills displayed, dominance and
longetivity.

20% timeliness and contribution to the growth of the sport
Tyson is great but his legacy suffers because it can not
stand the test of time. Monzon's longetivity is matched
by hopkins thus monzon's rankings would go
down. henry armstrong legacy of jumping in weight in a year
is unmatched of more than 50 years...thats so long and he
deserves to be in the top 2 ATG.

Can someone just ban him?

there is no drama in calzaghe's fights...he could not KO jones and bhop...
if he would KO dawson, then i might move him ten places above. Joe Cal's 168 reign is just like chris john. but JOe Cal entered by rankings bec he is a p4p fighter and defeated legends in their home country.

pac is 32 right now, a loss to hatton would put him around 45th place. a KO by hatton would bump him out of top 50. a KO victory over hatton would put him #17.

if pac beats PBF, he would be more or less top 10, and PBF would fall to the 60-70 place
