Who do you have for boxing's Mount Rushmore? Show your top four fighters and reasons you believe they belong at the top.

For me, I think the heavyweight division rules the roost. Like the true Mount Rushmore there may have been better Presidents overall, but these guys are symbolic of boxing.

John L. Sullivan: Boxing's fist heavyweight champion

Jack Dempsey: Boxing's first mega star

Joe Louis: 25 title defenses and adored by everyone in a divided nation.

Muhammad Ali: was the king of the best heavyweight era

Muhammad Ali: "The Greatest."

Sugar Ray Robinson: "Pound for Pound."

Floyd Mayweather: Highest grossing prize fighter of all time.

Joe Louis: For his title defenses.



Might wanna replace Floyd with Henry Armstrong.

I think everyone mentioned so far, with the exception of Willie Pep and Henry Armstrong, has been accused of domestic violence. Whether the accusations are true or not, I can't say.

Yea I understand - they all seem to have quick hands and most of the rumors had some foundation to them, I suspect - but JJ is without doubt, he put two different wives in hospital, literally. I also suspect there are a host of Black women as well who had no public voice. He looks to have had a disorder. Maybe just too much anger. You can only swallow so much anger in a smile then it comes out at the wrong time. Can't live JJ's life and not have some demons.

I like yours so far with Armstrong. Gotta have Robinson, the all time top pound for pound guy in there.
