ESPN Top 50 Fighters off All-Time (50-11)

Just about any list would be criticized, but this is a seriously bad list. All i have to say is that they rated jake lamotta much higher than tyson, holyfield, holmes, rjj, hopkins, de la hoya, mayweather, and whitaker. I think it would be a lot easier just to rank best by weightclass of all time.

Top 50 and top 100 are a big joke in my opinion. There is no such a thing as the greatest of all time, because every era had some great fighters. It's dumb to consider any boxer as the greatest of all-time.

I saw the beginning of this the other day and thought it was so ridiculous that I didnt even bring it to the boards....

And Oscar's ahead of them both?

Those 2 are top 15, easily.

I know this list doesn't make a lot of sense. There are guys on there that are rated higher than guys they lost to.
