Was Ali really a top ten heavyweight?

[Sweet Pete]

OK, it was a joke.

[QUOTE=Kid Achilles;1377018]I have a hard time really finding a place for Ali in my top ten list. Here's what it looks like so far.

1. Jack Dempsey
2. Rocky Marciano
3. Jim Jeffries
4. Gene Tunney
5. Max Schmeling
6. Bob Fitzsimmons
7. Max Baer
8. James J. Corbett
9. Jack Sharkey
10.Tommy Burns

this is obviously a joke, unless he is a complete ****ing ****** and has no clue what the sport of boxing is. its bad enough if he was serious and didnt have ali in his top 10, but the fact that he has schmeling and not louis and doesnt have foreman, frazier, larry holmes, lewis, etc.

Classic Kid Achilles thread

[Azteca]

lol lol. It's funny seeing most of the boys not even realize that every single fighter mentioned was WHITE. ha ha ha

[Azteca]

This is a joke? How in the hell do any of those guys rank above him?

Not only is leabing Ali off laughable to the highest degree, but leaving others like Lewis, Louis, Holmes, etc off is as well. There are MANY guys who deserve to be ahead of some of those choices, like Frazier, Liston, etc.

That list is laughable to say the very least. My God I have to assume you're just trying to rile us up.

I think you proved how much of a numbskull you are.

All the fighters mentioned were white.

Learn to read in between the lines, sonny.

Ya dig?

[Underboss]

My top ten;

1. James Jeffries
2. Peter Jackson
3. John L. Sullivan
4. Bob Fitzsimmons
5. James Corbett
7. Tom Sharkey
8. Joe Choynski
9. Frank Slavin
10. Gus Ruhlin & Peter Maher (tied)

As you can see, I don't think any fighter from the 1900's on can fight worth a lick!

great list yogi.

I realized it was a joke soon after. There are always idiots like this, how the hell are you supposed to tell if they are joking unless you've seen them post before?

And do you honestly look in my profile everyday to stalk me and see where my last post is just so you can troll it and prove how much of a stalker and a loser you are?

Get a life. Ya dig?

What do you think Butterfly, is it a good one? I have Ali somewhere in my top twenty, so don't worry it's not like I've forgotten about him!

Where is Holmes, Foreman, Lewis ??

You haven't even got Joe Louis on your list this has to be a joke Tunney spent most of his career at Lightheavyweight.

And the others you mentioned mostly only had up two good wins or 3 at the most.

I didn't bother reading the whole thread but it has to be a joke but its not very good one just a waste of time.
