My Top 20 All Time

[LacedUp]

I know he should be much higher

Of all times? I'm sorry, but no.

[EMACULATE]

Here goes:

1. Sugar Ray Robinson
2. Muhammad Ali
3. Henry Armstrong
4. Joe Louis
5. Harry Greb
6. Benny Leonard
7. Jack Johnson
8. Roberto Duran
9. Willie Pep
10. Gene Tunney
11. Micky Walker
12. Sam Langford
13. Julio Cesar Chavez
14. Joe Gans
15. Archie Moore
16. Sugar Ray Leonard
17. Jack Dempsey
18. Kid Chocolate
19. Jimmy Wilde
20. Barbados Joe Walcott

This is a list of the fighters I've seen footage of and/or read about to an extent I feel I can give an accurate account of their greatness. Admittedly, it is very hard to do such a list because there are so many names I want to put it in there. And some would potentially be lower on other people's lists, but each to his own of course.

When you say top twenty fighter and you chavez and Duran on your list it leads me too believe there is some bias in your thinking. Leaving Whitaker off any top twenty list is a travesty. To tell you the truth if you stack Delahoya resume versus chavez or duran you might be surprised whose is better. Duran is a quitter and no way is he a better boxer than Hopkins, Hagler, Whitaker, Mayweather or Hearns. I love Pep but he prime for.prime isn't better than Whitaker or Mayweather. Chavez fought more cab drivers than real contenders.and.when he fought real legit fighters he got schooled. Oscar got schooled as well as Duran but Oscar and No Mas lost almost all of there big fights.

What makes Duran and Chavez better than Richard Lopez?

Well to start their resumes are much much better.

7. Roberto "Manos de Piedra" Duran
9. Julio Cesar Chavez
17. Jimmy "Mighty Atom" Wilde
19. "The Executioner" Bernard Hopkins

Knowing I'm in the minority in saying so, I nevertheless feel Duran is too high, and the other three above would not make my list.

What bias would that be exactly? I'm curious to know.

With regards to the last half of your post, I don't even want to comment.
