Who cares if your the second best fighter

The level of athletes has improved overall, but the quality of boxing has declined. There is simply not as much competition among fighters like back in the 80s or even 90s.
And if you're talking about pure athleticism and conditioning, how come a lot of top level, prime fighters still gas out these days and receive just as many injuries?
Anyways, being a great boxer is more than just being a great athlete.
Sure Vitali could compete, but whether he can dominate is up for debate.Last edited by Swag Hustla; 11-12-2010, 05:26 AM.Comment

Well, then going by that theory, the best in each division today are also the best in those divisions of all time.
Currently that would mean Klit is the GOAT at HW, over Ali, louis etc.
Steve Cunningham or whoever is the greatest ever CW, over Holyfield.
Jean Pascal is the greatest LHW, over Moore, Charles, Jones etc.
Andre Ward (or Lucian bute) is the greatest SMW of all time over...Joe Calzaghe I guess.
The greatest ever MW is Sergio Martinez, over Greb, Monzon, Robinson, Hagler, Hop.
Greatest JMW is Paul Williams over Thomas Hearns, Terry Norris, Mike McCallum etc.
Greatest ever WW is Pac or Money Mai over Robinson, Leonard, Napoles, Armstrong.
Greatest 140 is Bradley over Chavez, Locche, Tszyu, Cervantes
Greatest 135 is Marquez over Duran, Gans and Leonard
etc
etc
etc
Go hang yourself.Comment
