    Greatest Boxer In Your Lifetime

    Just wondering who people thought is the best boxer from their lifetime. All of the ATG polls end up with a lot of fighters that we can't watch due to their fights not being recorded. One particular gripe I have is the lack of footage of SRR at 147. He was awesome at 160, imagine what he was like in his natural division. Grrr!!!

    So who would you say is the best boxer you've seen in your lifetime - whether current or from older footage?

      Mayweather definately has good skills, but would you rate him over Leonard, Whittaker or Jones Jr?

        Seeing as I am 20, I have a semi-limited amount of choices. I have to give the crown to Floyd narrowly over Sweet Pea and RJJ. Mayweather can simply just do it all.

                Well by lifetime I go by what I can remember. By that, it's gotta be Roy Jones Jr. and Floyd Mayweather.

                  For me, Bernard Hopkins and Floyd Mayweather... Actually, i'll add Pacquiao to that list.
