Thread read P4P.
At his best ain't hardly anyone surviving his artillery.
But the dish and froch votes make sense accomplishment wise in my view. All said and done ranked higher yea. And Naz probably also.

super heavies ruined the div. too big, bulky, slow. now u got basketball players jabbing and clinching. and short hw's solution to fighting a 4 inch taller opp is to put on 30 lbs. WTF?
i use to love hvy. followed it religiously pre-steward/wlad.
i couldn't name FW/BW/LW champs but knew HW no names like sherman "tank" williams. derrick "d train" jefferson.
tua was a waste.
if only his trainers had kept him 220-225 lbs and forced him to be a high output, body punching, pressure fighter....
Yeah true, true.
D-Train! Haha
Tua was a good fighter he really was, I loved watching him fight. Strong, big power, fast, really is a shame. That's what you call wasted talent.
Haha, I'm no fan of Lennox Lewis believe me.
Definitely an ATG HW though, but I also think he gets overrated these days.
Nothing close to how Wilde does though. He gets credit for doing nothing.
Who knows in shape David Tua might have caught Lennox and stopped him, blame him :lol1:

Numbers yeah, but loads of fighters have good numbers.
Len Wickwar had over 350 wins. But he literally beat no one of note.
Wilde had lots of wins but who did he beat? His resume is poor.
How can someone possibly have Jimmy Wilde above Lennox Lewis? Or even Carl Froch? Ricky Hatton?
Let alone guys like Fitzsimmons and McLarnin.
I don't rate Villa highly either. Definitely more so than Wilde though for sure.

100 ko's and mighty atom was a cool nickname.

fitz not getting any love. MW, LHW and HW champ is impressive no matter the era.
numbers, mate.
he had like 150 wins.
wait if you think wilde was overrated....
what about the filipino hero guilledo (pancho villa)???? :nonono:

Jimmy Wilde continues to be one of the most overrated fighters of all time.
You could argue Jimmy Wilde has a weaker resume than Amir Khan, to be honest.

he "beat" a 44 yr old hopkins, got dropped in the process and many thought he lost get real. Prime Bhop wouldv punished joe. Dawson whooped old Bhop wayy worse.
And what age was Calzaghe? 25? no, late thirties. As I said, US venue, US ref, THREE US judges and Calzaghe still won.
It's funny you talk up Dawson's win when he fought a 47 year old B-Hop at the age of 29.
B-Hop went on to beat Pavlik and Pascal. Kessler went on to beat Froch and Green.
It is what it is, suck it up.
Can't really disagree with that too much.
I suggest Frankie Bruno read up on his British Boxing history pre 1980.
He's a troll, he trolls all the British fighter threads and this is just another one.
P4P, Ken Buchanen is better than anyone on this list and P4P Jimmy Wilde is worlds better than Buchanen. Ignorant post

...so much hate
I guess if Joe's the most overrated then B-Hop and Kessler are complete nobodies.
Go tell Lennox he's not British and see what response you get.

Lewis didn't start boxing until he went to Canada. He holds DUAL citizenship in Canada and Britain. He trained only in North America and not in Britain. He didn't fight for Britain in the Olympics either... he fought for Canada. I don't consider Gamboa an American boxer. This **** makes me laugh every time. I think Lennox was so good because he wasn't trained in Britain. If he likes Great Britain so much than why does he hold dual citizenship? He's British born but not a British boxer. Upon retiring he lived in Miami... I mean seriously people. How was he introduced in the ring also? A South African blah blah blah by way of blah blah blah. Sounds like he's a loyal Brit and proud of it lmao!
he's british retard
