    WTF, you got ADHD or somethin? How we go from this to Lamon Brewster lol

    Either way, that dude was garbage IMO. He got his big break in life by defeating Klitscho. He's like Oliver McCall

        JCC could possibly be placed by either group.
        Good point! I never thought about Chavez....

        Chavez vs Duran would've been a war....

        My money would've been on Chavez though...

          Pac and Floyd are great, while Mosley and Oscar were just good.

          The 80s horsemen had greatness all-around.
          IDK, Oscar and Shane were up there with the best in their prime...

            80's, I believe the only other era that had arguably a better group of fighters would have been back in the 40s but they didn't all fight (Murderer's Row almost completely avoided) like they did in the 80's

                  All 4 of the 80's horesmen were brave enought to fight at 160.I'd have to take ot 1 of the other 1's that U have from the 90's & 2000's & replace that person with Tito,who was also brave enough to fight at 160.

                  Or U should keep it at welterweight & replace Hagler with Benitez or something.

                    4 Horseman of 90's/2000's - Mayweather, De La Hoya, Mosley, and Pacquiao


                    IMO, I would say the 4 Horseman of the 80's fought a tougher schedule. But I think the 4 horseman of 90's/2000's were P4P the better fighters....
                    The 80's fighters. By far.

                      The 80s were much better. Not only did they all fight each other, but all of them were better than those guys. Hearns and Hagler are top 50 fighters, maybe top 35, Duran and SRL are top 10 or close to it. Oscar isn't a top 50 fighter and neither is Shane Mosley. Mayweather and Pac are probably in the top 35 or close to it, with room to improve but they haven't fought each other, it wouldn't be at their best weights, they wouldn't be in their primes and it would be just one fight. It isn't even comparable.
