      then there's the elitists, so far only 4 qualify including henry armstrong as well):





      This position is impossible to achieve in the 21st century due to the erosion of boxing

        what do you mean by name or qualities?

        A perfect example is the difference between mayweather and leonard.

        Another example is the difference between joe calzaghe and roy jones jr.

        roy jones jr would still be higher on a list than mayweather BTW.

          ATG= Top 50 All-Time In The History of Boxing


          Hall of Famers seems almost a popularity contest...Ken Norton is in and apparently others who don't belong...based on what they've done at least...

              Even if you do become legendary, there is a lot of work needed to get up to elitist level.

                  Top 5 greatest fighters of all time in no particular order

                  Ray Robinson
                  Henry Armstrong
                  Harry Greb
                  Willie Pep
                  Benny Leonard.

                  But, all this is opinionated. So what you saying doesn't really count cuz it is an opinion.

                      one is legendary, the other isn't IMO.
