Joe Louis lost 2 years of his prime due to the war and he went a stretch of 14 years without being beaten.

Patterson and Liston don't belong on ANY "greatest heavyweights of all time" list...they might be top 20 but they aren't top 10 like Ezzard Charles and Joe Walcott.


Daxx you can love on Ali all you want to but not me...I'm not a sheep and I don't buy into this myth that has become Ali. Don't try and call me a bad boxing fan for not blindly putting Ali at #1...I've thought out my opinion and the more you want to call me ignorant and stupid the more stubborn I will be so it's probably best you drop it.

"Anyone who questions Ali in even the slightest or feels he was not as good as made out to be...knows nothing about the sport of boxing"

So do I know nothing about boxing? When did it become wrong to question a fighter? People question Rocky to hell and back and as I said before #1 He never lost #2 he was the underdog for the most part and #3 he fought better competition than people give him credit for.


But nooooo I get called every name in the book AND I get accused of being a racist to boot. What a great legacy Ali's fans are putting into place.....as giant assholes
