            Number one of all.....Iron Mike Tyson....

            People talked about his fights in the 1980s like he couldn't have been stopped...

            I saw his fight against Tillis....he looked like GARBAGE!!!
            In his prime, he never looked invincible to me, I saw MANY flaws in him...especially him fighting bums...

            Number 2 I would have to say Felix "Tito" Trinidad...

            He looked like pure CRAP against a old shot over the hill ******* head Pernell Whitaker and like crap against Hector "the ***" Camacho...

              Marciano-180 pound light heavyweight or cruiserweight who fought moslty other 180 pound light heavyweights or cruiserweights.he ducked any black right who wasn't really old or just a complete cum(Marciano ducked Corley Wallace because Wallace knocked out Maricano in 1 round as a amatuer)Tyson never fought any top level fighters who were in their primes by yet still was knocked out 5 times.Louis ducked black fighters until later in his career and they all beat him.Dempsey ducked all black fighters period.De la Hoya gets beat every time he faces a decent black fighter.And Sugar Ray Robinson is overrated.You look as his record in his prime and you go wow but who did he fight?Mostly really slow italian guys with no punch or skill.He ducked any black fighter who he knew could beat him like Charley Burley and when he did fight black fighters like Tommy Bell he had a hell of a time beating them or lost.Turpin beat Robinson with ease and was beating Robinson again in their second fight until Sugar got lucky.

                  Imnorw, that is a complete load of ****!

                  You probably got the information from an AP report of Wallace's death, but did you know that they also came back shortly after and admitted they made an error in reporting it as a KO victory for Wallace? They only fought once as amateurs (took place in March of 1948), and it was Wallace who won a controversial three round decision. Here's a brief fight description that I have from it;

                  "Rocky swarmed after Wallace at the opening bell. He was throwing wild but heavy punches that landed everywhere, on the arms, the shoulders, the top of the head.

                  The crowd at Ridgewood Grove Arena in Brooklyn was on it's feet cheering. They sensed an upset, and even though Coley was a local favorite, they abandoned him.

                  But Wallace was an excellant boxer for an amateur, and he soon adjusted his style to cope with Rocky's bull-like rushes. It was the classic boxer versus slugger contest that fight fans crave.

                  Wallace had been scoring points with his slick style, but he did not have a punch to hurt Marciano. As the fight ended, Rocky was battering Coley against the ropes.

                  Wallace had been stylish, but Marciano had carried the fight to him throughout all three rounds and had delivered all of the punishing blows.

                  When the judges announced Wallace the victor, the fans, who believed Marciano had won easily, were indignant. They booed and threw soda bottles and programs into the ring."

                  Here's a couple of links to Marciano's record that clearly shows that it was a decision win for Wallace, including one that also mentions the controversy surrounding the fight;





                  Imnorw, you've made your feelings about Marciano very clear since you've been on the forum, but you should try to avoid fudging the truth, or at least learn them before you go spouting off that type of crap.
