If all fighters were the same weight....

[Nick Fury]

Lets say every fighter was 150 or 170, they were all in one weight class.

Who would be the greatest fighter of all time. Who would have been the most dominate?

[AntonTheMeh]

robinson would be there, hearns, maybe hagler, ezzard charles, jones....

robinson.................

Robinson, jones, Ali, then followed by greb, Armstrong, Leonard & young motivated Tyson then Holyfield

[Viktor777]

At 170 Jack Dempsey would be top 5.

170 is to low for Tyson and the majority of heavyweights. And to light for anything above middleweight.

At 150 im going with Sam Longford.

At 165 Robinson

probably an elite featherweight since featherweights are much faster

You cant really consider that featherweights are faster when mythically placing them in the same weight class, as IMO this means you bringing everyone to a same weight and making adjustemtns on speed on a pound per pound basiss, same thing with power, as a featherweight does not have the power of a heavyweight.

That is why this is hard.

Many people feel that welters to middleweights are the weight classes where you have the perfect combination of boxing skill, power, size, and speed along with the need for reflexes, defense etc.

At heavyweight even the great ali did not have to do as many things better than his opponent than lets say a Mayweather or Leonrad does. Ali was faster had reach, jab, and heart. He very rarely threw body punches, leaned back from punches which at a lighte weight this would get him killed. The fightters even the great ones he had comeing at him where not like Duran, Hearns, Hagler. They resembled them but did not have the total packages. You simply do not have to have eveything at the heavyweight division so it is very hard to rank them pound per pound.

I will tell you this Tyson for 4 rounds, with that speed, power, intensity, and early on his defensive posture could compete at any weight class great. However he would look even worse after the 1st 4 rounds vs great boxers that could put punches together, slip punches, things that at the lower weights they do much more effectively
