ring magazine's 80 greatest fighters of the last 80 years

[Trenchant]

whatch Shavers vs Lyle. Shavers punches were insane, he would have KO'd Lyle if he knew how to chill a little bit when he had him hurt. He just gassed himself out too much with the punching but when he pulled the trigger it was crazy. Shavers vs Lyle is awesome!

Ali, dead sincere about Shavers.. He wasn't kidding.. Good vids 16BF, cheers..

In his 74 wins Shavers knocked out 68. Muhammad Ali and Larry Holmes both said Shavers was the hardest puncher they fought. So this is pretty high praise, when you consider Ali went in with Archie Moore, Sonny Liston, Joe Frazier, Bob Foster, and George Foreman.

And Holmes went in with Gerry Cooney, Michael Spinks, Mike Tyson, Evander Holyfield.

You completely ignored my post and whom I was responding to you **cking moron,I was countering the dunce who judged knockout power on how highly ranked that particular opponent

And Bugner was stopped on a cut smart arse

You make it to obvious you are a ALT. I quoted you due to the fact you douting Shaver's power. And the reason I put Bugner was to see if you were just going to troll my post or actually read it, and I would know if you would of read it by mentioning Bugner was not knocked out.

So am pretty amazed you read my post, instead of just trolling it like you mostly do round here.

Well Done............

Are you intentionally being Ironic? I wasn't doubting shavers power you tool.I was responding to the dunce who based knockout power on the qauility of opposition knocked out rather than a consistent record showing as such

I read your post yet you didn't bother reading mine even though you qouted it......you dumb prick

Here is a interview with Ron Lyle, Lyle says Shavers was the best puncher he ever faced.

[mickey malone]

Sure I read something about Lyle & Shavers boxing a 4 round exhibition.. Some time ago now, but they'd have both been in their 50's..

If its primarily based on resumes then Pernell is too high...Aaron Pryor is too high...and how the hell is Trinidad at 51 and DLH at 75?

I personally like ESPN's list better...

because trinidad did beat odlh

[-EX-]

because trinidad did beat odlh

De La Hoya's resume is still better...and even if you disagree the gap is way too large...

And Pernell has a good resume but not top 10...
