    Why are old-timers completely overrated???

    It's a joke.

    They did well in their era but there judgement is mainly on newspaper articles and stories that got past on and on..

    Watch footage of the fighters:







    There is hardly any footage on Greb yet he ranked higher than Floyd. OK fair enough but read the first comment on that video. "This guy's punches are almost too fast for the eye too see and they're coming in all directions. He would have been a huge challenge for Monzon and Hagler no doubt"

    Be serious, please.



    Delusional

      I like how you make a new thread here instead of responding to the one in the History Section.
      Johnson and Dempsey are Over rated, if anything Langford is under rated by most though, look at his resume and how he beat ranked Heavies despite starting as a Lightweight.

          Seriously, there's this bastard on youtube who made a video the other day bashing all these old fighters.... but he said something along the lines of;

          "If Gatti and Ward had been filmed in Black & White -- they'd have gone down as ATGs."

          When I think about it, that's kind of true.

              Nice, I mean jesus what can I do too argue with this genius, oh wait there wasn't a point you just tried to insult me.

              You couldn't debate your point in that thread and didn't even bother responding too the posts made in that thread, how are we the deluded ones when you don't know what you're talking about and can't argue your starting point ?.

              If it makes you happy, imo Floyd is greater then Johnson and Dempsey.
