[Artest]

Sugar Ray Robinson
Muhammed Ali
Marvin Hagler
Sugar Ray Leonard
Pernell (Sweet Pea) Whitaker
Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
Evander (Real Deal) Holyfield
Aaron Pryor
Henry Armstrong
Joe Louis

Can anyone name a group (without being racist or ignorant), that they can put together, be it Mexican, Puerto Rican, etc. who can defeat the above group? Again, the racists need not apply. I respect pride, but not ignorance.

Marvin Hagler should be on the top because he was very entertaining to watch. And I hate floyd mayweathers style of fighting, ppl who buy his ppvs... just wow, lol

I would remove Aaron Pryor and put in Ezzard Charles. Pryor was a hell of a fighter, but underachieved thanks in no small part to his own demons.

I would remove Evander Holyfield and put Archie Moore there.

I'd put Sam Langford in there too. You can take out Floyd Mayweather. I think highly of Floyd as a fighter, but he's still active and I'd like to see what he does before ranking him all-time.

Joe Gans deserves consideration, as do other guys like Sandy Saddler, Bernard Hopkins, Michael Spinks.

Its Muhammad Ali lol. I wouldn't have Aaron Pryor on there. Not top 10.

I think Joe Gans HAS to be in there, even if it wasn't restricted to African-Americans.
