    sumbu kalambay / mike mccallum...

    their fight and them as fighters are rarely talked about IMO...

    great tactical match between these 2 and kalambay against graham too...

    i think kalambay could compete (and do well) in any MW era...

    great fighters these two...

      nobody here ever even mentions willie pep.

      at his best it was hard to even lay a glove on him.

        We've had quite a few Pep threads in the past, but he doesn't get talked about as much as you'd think considering his greatness. Probably due to him not being a destroyer or more recent for some of the younger fans here.

          I struggle to find full fights of Pep's against noteworthy opponents.

            Chris Eubank, no one talks about him but he has as a very good argument for 2nd best fighter of the 90s

                  Come on man, seriously? Off the top of my head....Holyfield, Lewis, Toney, Jones, Trinidad, Whitaker, Oscar all should rank higher, and I know I'm missing plenty.

                      Roy is the obvious #1 off the top of my head Holyfield and Gonzalez are probable Eubanks's main competition for #2. Lewis Trinidad, Toney, Whitaker and Oscar are all probable top 10 of the decade
