    Mike Tyson, period. SRR as well I mean he is the best but to say his level of greatness is unreachable is asinine, he is human isn't he?

        Not really. In today's era of boxing it's rare to see a fighter pass 60 professional career fights, let alone retire with a record of 175-19 with 108 KO's. Ray Robinson will always hold that title, because he never took 6 months off between fights and he fought everybody who he came across and always won impressively.

            Recently...it has to be Mosley. I think his only good win was against DLH at 147.

                  I kinda have to admit to Tyson even though he is one of my favorites of all time. He is in a similar boat as mayweather in that your eyes tell you that these guys HAVE To be ATG's just by how amazing they look in the ring, but they just dont have the PROOF that a record can bring to back it up.

                    Comparing HW's records compared to multi-divisional champs isn't the same thing. It's ridiculous to even try to. Heavyweights are basically expected to fight the best because they wont be dropping or gaining weight to win other belts.

                      Keith McKnight, Joe Mesi, and Tye Fields. McKnight because of his (bloated) record 43-4 28ko's. Mesi because he is a sissy *****, and Fields because well he sucks more d_@k than a ****star. Samuel Peter will be ktfo by Kevin Johnson.
