My Top 50 pound for pound.

See what I mean about this guy being a troll? He just comes in here to trash past greats since he feels them a threat to his personal favorite's all-time standing.

I know what he's doing but I can't just delete things because of his ignorance or not liking his opinion. Just let it ride my man.

Yes, but you CAN delete obvious bait threads and troll posts.

I've been deleting posts regularly since I became mod my friend. Im not going to tell people what they should or shouldn't think. I don't have to like it but it's the only way to be fair. You know I respect you, but this is moderate and not segregate. Maybe Im wrong but I just don't think it's right. Remember, this is a learning process for me. Im only trying to be fair.

They were bums talent wise. They may have been ranked but it was a bad era. Frazier, Foreman, Tyson, Ali, Holmes, Lewis, Bowe Holyfield etc would all had similar success to Louis in that era. The difference being they wouldnt get knocked down multiple times and almost lose to someone who weighed in as a LHW on fight night.



I think your vastly overrating fighters from the past. McLarnin is not an ATG. Funny you rating him as an ATG then criticizing Floyd for fighting JMM when Mclarnin fought his fair share of LWs at WW.

Ross hasnt really achieved anything Floyd hasnt. If Floyds not top 50 then neithers Ross.

Yikes! Now there is something you don't see very often. Someone claiming McClarnin isn't an ATG.

In fact, you are the only person I've ever heard claim that. You're either tripping, don't know what you're talking about, or you know something that every single historian and boxing expert doesn't with regards to McCarnin's supposed incredible HOF, ATG career. What could it be? Or is it just that it relates a bit more to the first two choices?

There aren't many that can claim to have beaten about ten HOF'ers mate.

Ross and McClarnin are flat out ATG's of the highest calibre. I don't think there is any dis*****g that.

Louis ,any day even the 37 year old shot Louis would not have lost to a Neon Leon(have a look at his carrer)..And he did not get beat by the light heavy moron, Ali got kncoked down by Henry Cooper, Sonny banks they were supertalented I Suppose.Everyone gets knocked down. Did Ali fight Tyson,Bowe why are you bringing them up here?

HOlmes got beat by a light heavy , Ali had a mighty struggle with Doug JOnes too many thought he lost the fight(IT was very close)...Louis got knocked down but most of them were flash knockdowns. And please no Bowe never had the focus to do 5 successful defenses.
See the punch from Buddy Baer which knocks down Louis and tell me which heavy would not have gone down.Louis got up and gave him a pasting. Unlike your oen of the greats listed Tyson he actually got up from knockdowns to win a fight. Holyfield would have loads of trouble with Jersey Joe and will in life and death with Buddy Baer , Abe Simon or Lou Nova. Frazier had trouble with Buster mathis and Mathis was no where near Buddy Baer or Abe Simon in punching ability or talent.

What makes #1,#2 contenders bum the fact that you couldnt read up anything about them and know nothing of them? What was Louis supposed to do get on a time machine and fight people who a internet troll thinks to be talented...He fought and beat the best of his era. Please stop posting garbage and show your ignorance or keep posting and say rubbish like you said and show people who actually seem to already know that you are JUST A TROLL

You have GOT to be kidding, right? If it wasn't for Ross' better h2h record against McLarnin I would rate Jimmy higher. With wins over *Leonard, *LaBarba, *Villa, *Ambers, *Canzoneri, *Taylor, Singer, Fuller, *Corbett III and *Ross Jimmy McLarnin beat a who's who of fighters from his era and has one of the most impressive resumes ever. The guys with asterisks in front of their names are hall of famers and thats just the ones I know of.

Ross beat better fighters than Floyd. I never said Floyd wasn't top 50. But he certainly isn't close to being within the top 25 because of his relatively weak resume compared to other greats. This is not an assumption, this is a fact.

So your including a win over a shot Leonard. Ambers, Fuller and Canzoneri fought as near LWs on fight night while he came in as a WW. You do realise that McLarnins win over Taylor was by DQ and he lost the 2 other bouts.

You dont rate Floyds win over JMM yet you rate McLarnin's wins over LWs though. Based on your logic McLarnin cant be an ATG then.

That's fair enough. While I personally would like to send the trolls packing back to NSB far be it for me to tell you how to the job. I certainly would like to see the pr1cks told to shut up and leave but ultimately that's not my call it's call yours and I can respect your restraint in the matter and your desire to be fair.

So you're including wins over a shot De La Hoya, a shot Mosely, a blown up Featherweight in Marquez, a bogus win over Castillo, club fighters in Baldomir, Hatton, and Manfredy, a crude slugger in Corrales. Do I need to on? I can do this all day and to ANY fighter you care to mention.

Still waiing for your pound for pound list after you openly critiscised mine in such a crude way. This should be fun.
