    Are you implying that list is normal? That list is wrong in so many ways that I dont know where to start but how about removing Calzaghe from anywhere near top 50? It's ludacrious.. Rocky Marciano at #5 over Joe Louis is just full retard Im not sure how to respond to that one. But the best one has to be Mike Tyson at #6. lol .. IM thinking maybe this list was made as a joke.

    I wouldn't argue with anyone who has Tyson in the top 10 fighters of all time

    if he went in with every other fighter in history peak for peak / pound for pound would he be in the top 10? probably not

    but he is one of the top 10 when it comes to the impact he had and still has on boxing, he was immense for the sport, probably only Ali in the last 50 years has helped raise the profile and public interest more

    if you looked at youtube stats for most boxing vids watched I bet there aren't many other fighters featured higher than Tyson, when Tyson was on his way up I don't remember a more exciting time in boxing

    and to say calzaghe shouldn't be anywhere near the top 50 suggests to me that you are letting your heart rule your head

    Why remove Calzaghe? Because he's recent? 50 years from now it'll be hard to get him off anyone's list.

    Look at his achievements.

    Good list but they neglected some old timers.

    There's 7, maybe 8, guys on that list that would not make my top 50 of all time,I don't think. I've never wasted the time to do such a thing, but I don't think they would.

    Rocky Marciano should not be at 5, he should be at 6.

    They have Calzaghe in there but no Ricardo Lopez? Wow and I'm sorry but Ray Robinson is #1 in my book over Ali who patterned his style from the great 1.

    I'm thinking Floyd is the greatest.

    That looks like a fan vote list. If you did the same on here you'd get a similar bizarre result because people vote for their favourites.

    Calzaghe (silly), Roy, Tyson or Floyd (at this moment in time) are never getting on a serious boxing historians top ten list.

    the problem with these lists is that people are so intent in being pissed off about the list not agreeing with any list they would have rather than putting a smile on their faces and seeing the positives
