oh so people assume Muhammad Ali is greater just because of his resume??? so its not about the fact he was the fastest moving heavyweight in history??? threw the fastest combinations in heavyweight history, invented the rope-a-dope, had an iron chin, tremendous heart and will to win????? so none of that is taken into consideration???

Im not putting Ali down in any way. But don't act like he was the only one to do these things, because that is simply untrue.Comment

When one considers 100++ years of boxing history the gap between number one and number two is invisible. Indeed the gap between numbers one and ten is very small. It's like splitting hairs. Indeed an argument could be made that virtually any of the boxers in the top ten could be considered for the top spot..
Exactly! Its apples and oranges.Comment

The only fighter i rank higher than Ali is Ray Robinson and you can make a case for Henry Armstrong too......
i'm sure you've seen this list before, its the International Boxing Research Organization's Top 25 Greatest Fighters of All Time.....
1. Sugar Ray Robinson
2. Harry Greb
3. Henry Armstrong
4. Muhammad Ali
5. Joe Louis
6. Sam Langford
7. Roberto Duran
8. Benny Leonard
9. Willie Pep
10. Bob Fitzsimmons
11. Joe Gans
12. Ezzard Charles
13. Ray Leonard
14. Jimmy Wilde
15. Eder Jofre
16. Mickey Walker
17. Archie Moore
18. Jack Dempsey
19. Jack Johnson
20. Gene Tunney
21. Stanley Ketchel
22. Barbados Joe Walcott
23. Rocky Marciano
24. Tony Canzoneri
25. Barney Ross
22 experts on boxing came to the conclusion that only 3 fighters could have been better than Ali, and you're meaning to tell me 10 fighters are better than him????
i must say i don't agree with this list either but it is as credible and subjective as it gets.....Comment
