    Just because Roy Jones has recently sucumbed to old age doesn`t mean he is less of a fighter. He achieved quite a bit in his career and dominated teh lightheavy weight division for almost 7 yrs. This guy is an all time great, he should be ranked higher than Tsyzu.

      Yeah lol idiot. We were referring to all-time greats at his division, but you missed that one apparently. Also, if this is your all-time great fighters list in general, it is a pretty ****ty one. Let me illustrate:

      Ali at 4th? Behind Henry Armstrong? ummm... That's a first.
      Marciano at 33rd?
      Patterson at 80th?

      Need I go on? I'll say it in smaller and more accurate words...owned.

        I have no qualms about henry armstrong being at number 2 at all...he was awesome. Ali could've been the best p4p ever if he wasn't sidelined by that political bull**** for 3 years. And as much as I like Tszyu, there is no way in hell that he should be higher than RJJ. RJJ is a once in a lifetime kinda fighter and deserves to be called an all-time great!

          I know who Armstrong is, but he was never the caliber of Ali. Ali was well-known because of his personality as well as his accomplishments. The political stuff aside, Ali would have demolished every fighter on that list at heavyweight IMO(He did beat some of the best ever), so I feel that he is P4P the best ever.

            I would put Armstrong ahead of Ali based on the fact that he held world titles at multiple weights including 3 at the same time if I'm not mistaken. And Ali wouldn't "demolish" every other fighter...he may beat them, but if a young, more experienced Foreman had another crack at him he could beat him, and Larry Holmes certainly had the jab and all around skills to give Ali boatloads of trouble and possibly beat him.

              And theres no way that Tszyu should be close to Roy on an all-time list. If Kostya were to say go out and win the super middleweight title then yeah maybe. Roy is the best fighter of the last ten years...like Kimmy said, his last few fights shouldn't take away from his greatness.

                I see what your saying, but what is your point in relevance to Ali? I don't care if you only hold one belt, beating fighters like Sonny Liston, Jerry Quarry, Joe Frazier, George Foreman, etc. is enough to establish your #1 ranking. Sorry about the "demolish" sarcasm. I didn't think someone would actually take that seriously. LOL.

                  My point in establishing Armstrong ahead of Ali was pretty clear. Ali might have had the toughest resume of any fighter ever, but Armstrong fought the top guys of his day IN MULTIPLE WEIGHT CLASSES, he fought much more than Ali, and held world titles at different weights. It's harder to move out of your best weight and beat top guys but Armstrong did this. He was also an animal in the ring. I didn't see any sarcasm in your demolish statement it looked pretty serious to me but if it was sarcastic than I'm sorry for ranting when I shouldn't have.

                    seeing as tsyzus only had just over 30 fights can he
                    really be called that..your views please :lol:

                    and hes been koed
                    too early to tell...he hasn't been tested that far...and having a ko-punch isn't everything in boxing...not to mention future breeds of fine boxers...

                    all-time australian boxer...might as well be.

                      WOW! You sure have something to say when you dont have a damn list. Lets see you're list? Or YOU are truly the idiot.LOL

                      You cant argue that top 3, in fact some can argue Armstrong can be number 1.

                      As far as Tszyu goes though, he ranks in the top 5 in his weight division.
