Some may argue that Sugar Ray Robinson dominated in his time, he made it big and dominated the 40's 50's and some of the 60's containing a record of 175-19 (fairly impressive i believe). Others may argue that Rocky Marciano should hold that place as history's greatest with an astonishing record of 49-0. There may even be others who come close to this sort of glory but only one sticks out in my mind, Muhammad Ali. Ali is the greatest thing that ever happened to boxing, he's strategic, ****y, inteligent, used a cool head and a fast heart and even if he felt like **** still faught with a smile on his face just to make the other contendor feel intimidated. Many may be disscouraged that im even stating this, that im expressing my views on this but i dont believe im wrong. Try and prove me wrong, who is better than Ali? aubviously nobody.
Robinson ranks #1 for me, Ali #4. Greb and Armstrong rank above Ali.
You could also make arguments for many others, I've seen some rank Ali outside the top 10 as far as P4P goes.

His chin sucks? Really, is that why he was never even close to out in his whole career? His balance is what ****** against higher competition because of his ridiculously unorthodox style, and it is also what caused so many KD's against him. His chin was far from sucky. His defense was very evasive, but technically was not that good, and it showed against higher comp. He had awesome power and explosiveness, and a lot of what he had was in his gusto and aura. He knew he would destroy the opponent, and his style was so difficult to figure out and his power so dangerous the opponent was sometimes forced to go into a shell.
His work ethic and ego was his downfall.

Barrera going on to beat the **** out of Hamed is beside the point. They were both scared of him for a reason. He used to knock featherweights out like he was Mike Tyson.
