RAy Robinson had more skills than ALi. Ali was skilled, but I think Ray Robinson was more versatile than Ali. Ray could box, and ****.

So he won the Lightweight, Welterweight, Light Middleweight and Middleweight titles, that makes him a 4 division champ, De La Hoya was 6 division champ with the major belts, and when I say major belts i mean WBO,WBA,IBF,WBC these 4, nothing elseOriginally posted by Marvelous63Roberto Duran won the:
WBA Lightweight Title
WBC Lightweight Title
WBC Welterweight Title
WBC Light Middleweight Title
WBC Middleweight Title
NBA Super Middleweight Title
Obviously, he wasnt champ in 6 weight classes, but this was in a time where there were fewer weight classes and fewer belts. Duran also face unreal competition, he may have the best resume of any fighter ever.
He ranks far above DLH for p4p rankings, but Sugar Ray Robinson was an even better fighter than duran.
It is difficult to argue that sugar ray is not the best p4p fighter of all time, holding the World Welterweight Title as well as the World Middleweight Title.
Theres no doubt in my mind that had there been more weight classes, he would have held the World titles in those divisions as well.Comment

Fantasy matchup.....If Lacy could come down to middle and fight Robinson who wins. Lacy would knock him into the second row man. Yesterdays fights can't match up to today's athletes, people evolve, we are far superior today.......therefore, todays boxers are better P4P.Comment

Exactly, I dislike oscar too, but i have to admit he was goodOriginally posted by elveielI dont see why De La Hoya cant be considered as one of the best ever, i'm ****ing sick of the way people suck the old fighters ****s.
De La Hoya as done everything in the sport, i dislike him but he was good, in his prime he'd have given anyone hell.Comment

With that type of thinking you must think that the Dolphins from 1972 would have a ****load of difficulties dealing with a typical averagee NFL team from today. Afterall, with the size advantage of the modern football teams, it's not inconcievable to think that the '72 Dolphins and their "No-Name Defense" are going to have a very difficult time penetrating the O-line of a modern team (as well as encountering the same difficulties on offense)...Originally posted by CacaFantasy matchup.....If Lacy could come down to middle and fight Robinson who wins.

But are you seriously going to sit there and tell me that you think a team that goes 8-8 today is "greater" than a team that goes 17-0 from thirty plus years ago just because you think the modern athletes have the advantage?Comment
