Excellent poll from unbiased boxing fans. :boxing:
The truth is out for anybody to know and enjoy the real deal in boxing.
Shit poll made by a Pacsexual.
A question to all Pacsexuals?
Do you like Apples?
The truth is your boy Pac is scared to fight Floyd, has been cherry picking all his opponents AND been taking PED's the whole time you Pacmos have been worshiping him.
How do you like them Apples?
When i look at heavyweight listings, i usually look for louis, ali, and holmes for some type of credibility, to be honest.
instead.. i saw fan favorites.. and just names that people have actually heard before.
This looks more like "most popular boxers" of all time.
List still is garbage there is no way in hell Tyson and Marciano are top 3 HWs.
There is no Ezzard Charles and Michael Spinks are ahead of Calzaghe and Jones for LHW. Even for the original 8 weightclass.
Willie Pep is the #1 Featherweight at worse #2 behind Armstrong of all time.
The majority of people who voted does not know boxing.
I agree with some of that, but it is what it is, the public's opinion. I thought al gore was 10x better for the United States than bush and he lost, sometime elections just aren't fair.
tyson and marciano at #2 and #3 over louis, holmes etc?
calzaghe over ezzard charles and bob foster?
DLH worlds 3 greatest WW ever? over hearns, griffin etc
pacquiao over pep?
mainstream fans at their finest..
That still makes the whole poll a failure when you put Wilfredo Gomez as the #1 Bantamweight. If we using the original he should be a Featherweight. So this rankings sucks...i agree with you there. pac and gomez are misplaced. as they should be in the next division up not down from where they had their success.
Ding Ding Ding! this man is a genius.

for those who don't realize or don't know the history of the sport, they are using the original 8 weight classes. fighters who had success in the later created jr. divisions are placed in the divisions that would have included them in the past.
and not surprisingly the most vocal have made no mention of floyd "i only fought 4times at 135" mayweather being listed at #3
