Charley Burley This guy was ducked like the plague even from Robinson i believe Archie Moore said once *People always ask me who was the best fighter i fought i always say Marciano because thats what people want to hear but really it was Charles Burley because he whooped my a** in my prime.

nice list

I always had a lot of respect for herol graham. superb ant light middleweight and middleweight at british and european level. was slightly past his peak when he eventually got his first world title chance even though he had lost only once at this time.

at his peak a defensive master with great reflexes.

his loss to jackson was hearbreaking

Thanks Graham has to be unluckiest ever i mean his fight with Mike McCallum was razor thin close and so was his fight against Sumbu Kalambay and Jackson fight ?? well what can i say Jackson's corner were just about to step in then bam out of nowhere thats it all over all Graham had to do was survive the round and not go in for the kill and he would of won and Charles Brewer fight ?? well he floored Brewer twice if i can remember right and was a mile ahead on the scorecards and then was stopped in the 10th round i actually feel bit sorry for Graham.

me too. it says a lot too that the likes of eubank, benn and watson wanted nothing to do with him either.

I think Graham would of been miles ahead on the scorecards if he fought Benn, Eubank, Watson, but would of been stopped in the last round with 2 seconds left
