      Why do you say such things without knowing what you're talking about? There is a ton of footage of Charles and enough footage, newspaper, magazine and fighter testimonial to judge Gans style of fighting and historical ranking.

        James Toney springs to mind. Marquez is the best counter puncher in the sport today, along with Mayweather and Donaire is Devastating with the counter

        Archie Moore, Benitez man that boy was special when it came to counter punching!

        Id also say Mike Tyson just to come at another angle here, he'd slip ur shot then lay u out

              First of all name all the fights of Charles besides Marciano(because I have seen it) that are available and provide links

              LOL who gives a crap about newspapers and magazines every fighter sounds like god when you are reading about them

                [QUOTE]This is your response to everything you can't see and it has already been refuted. In other words you're saying EVERYBODY is lying. Lol!!!

                How did the newspaper and magazine articles sound when Ali Lost to Holmes? How about when Tyson lost to Douglas? Louis against Walcott the first time? I can go on and on showing you how your opinion holds little water.

                  I've been waiting for someone to mention Evander Holyfield, so I guess I will.

                    I was going to say Holyfield but I try and go for one that's unlikely to be mentioned in these type of threads so I went with Giardello.

                      Salvador Sanchez deserves a mention.
