What makes an ATG?

[Beanflicker]

It's a combination of ability and resume. Legendary names who will always be remembered and brought up by boxing fans decades after they're gone.

[C.J.Rock]

To be an ATG a fighter MUST take on ALL legitimate contenders. No ducking & diving
A fighter can have all the natural God Given boxing talent in the world , but that alone will not5 make him an ATG. To be the best he's got to fight the best. To have a bogus 0 & claim to be TBE isn't enough. Its time to man up or get the heck out of boxing & let the REAL ATG's fight it out

Beating the best in your era and being lucky enough to get a couple of them while they're in thier prime, i.e., no question marks.

Edit: So ATG is mostly an illusion imho. You could easily add an * to almost anyone's record.

Longevity helps too.
