I'm actually getting sick of ring magazine. Who's to say that ring magazine aren't subseptable to taking bribes and such just as WBC, WBA, or IBF. All these people on Espn keep only talking about the ring magazine belt and such. Its becoming a marketing ploy just like the other belts. Evidentually Don King will have his hand in the pockets of ring magazine just like the WBA. I dont even consider it a championship until I see someone holding that thing up in the ring and fighting for it. Why cant boxng just be like the NFL, MLB, NBA, etc. One " league", one Champion. What an idea.

One more thing. What if other boxing magazines come out and say that the real champion is this guy. Now we have ring magazing champ, xyz magazine champ, playboy champ, sears roebuck catalog champ, wba, ibf, wcb wtf champ. Get the point

I've never heard anything about Henry Armstrong before. I'd be interested in seeing some footage. I'm always interested in those that share my last name.

Whitaker at 10.

LOL. What a joke.

thomas hearns is way too low, he should be in the top 20 or at least top 30. This guy is 6 time world champion.

[Komandos]

Roj Jones Jr
and Ray Leonard
