    Best boxer ever???

    If you had to pick 1 fighter to claim was the BEST in the history of boxing, who would it be and why?
    My 3 choices are:
    Mike Tyson
    Floyd Mayweather
    Muhammed Ali

    I think the reasons are obvious.
    Honorable mentions go to:
    Oscar de la Hoya
    Manny Pacquiao
    George Foreman
    Joe Frazier
    Roberto Duran

    Sugar Ray Robinson might be good enough for an honorable mention.

      Besides Duran, none of them make the top 10. Im assuming this is a pound for pound list since Frazier, Foreman, Pac and Tyson shouldn't be anywhere near a "best boxers" list.

              Besides Duran? Ah - I'd rate Ali higher than Duran.

                I have to agree with that. Duran is a great fighter, but Ali was AMAZING, and he did a lot to make boxing a more popular sport.

                  Thread title says "Best boxer ever" which according to the English language, is singular, yet somehow, looking at the post, it becomes plural

                  Thread title should be "Best boxers ever" or basically "Your favorite boxers" because there's no such thing as the "best boxer ever" because everybody has differing opinions about the best boxer ever

                  Joe Louis, Sugar Ray, Ali, Tyson, Mayweather, Pacquiao, it all varies
