    Based on what?

      Maybe not the best ever but clearly in that elite group you could make a legit argument for.

        In terms of resume? He doesn't have a legit argument for GOAT heavy.

            Well yeah one great pretty much always has a chance against another, that doesn't warrant the title of GOAT heavy.

              Not really, some greats are definitely better then other greats.

              they might always have a punchers chance but thats not really a chance...thats more of a hope.

              Id say dempseys chance is a bit more then just a punchers chance vs greats and goats alike and that more then just a hope to win is what gives any the right to argue dempsey as goat heavy.

Foreman shamelessly ducked Quarry and for good reason.
                You must have started young if you're 21 as Quarry unfortunately wasn't in too great condition from your 5th birthday to give much advice
