Comments Thread For: Mayweather Ranks 3rd on BoxNation All-Time Great Poll

[E-Thug]

HAHAHAHA I commend my fellow Brits for having the knowledge and self-worth for having Jones Jr ranked higher than Calzaghe. It seems the knowledgeable Brits know Calzaghe's win over Jones means fuck all

Robinson should be #1 always any poll that says otherwise loses all credibility with me. Seeing Joe at #10 had me laughing, though to be honest I think Floyd at #3 is a bit high but he is on his way there regardless I don't care what anyone says. He's moved up a lot of weight divisions and rarely even challenged (Castillo/Oscar/Cotto) won each fight and is still going. If he beats Canelo if someone had him at #10 I wouldn't hate I think he is top 25 definitely right now.

The results do not surprise me, assuming each voter can only vote once, many fighters would be overlooked.

For instance someone who believes Ali is the best, would not be able to vote for Hagler, Duran and so forth.

Brit fans dropping knowledge.


But seriously, this list alost all credibility the second i didn't see Carl Froch in the top 5, 6 at a push. ****** Brits.

Wow, what an awful list.

[kokingbill]

Why didn't they put David Haye on the list, since they weren't making any effort at being objective or realistic?

Calzaghe at 10! Hahahahahahahaha! :smiley***

And that make it worser! meaning lots of Brits vote Floyd as #1 ATG! hahahaha

I'm not a fan of these all time P4P lists. I have watched plenty of Robinson and Ali fights but really feel I can only judge fighters I have watched every week in my generation.

People watch a few fights and read a couple of books then all of a sudden have a top 10 which has nobody in they have even seen live in their lifetime.

I can't stand the guy, but the best Boxer I have ever seen in my time is Floyd Mayweather, yet a lot of people rubbish him being in the top 10. If you pick the top 10 most exciting fighters of all time, he will not even be considered.

[prinzemanspopa]

1. Muhammad Ali

2. Sugar Ray Robinson

3. Floyd Mayweather Jnr

4. Sugar Ray Leonard

5. Rocky Marciano

6. Mike Tyson

7. Joe Louis

8. Roy Jones Jnr

9. Roberto Duran

10. Joe Calzaghe

-------
Robinson, Ali, Louis, and Duran are the only fighters who have any business on a top 10 list. The rest of the list make me...

Neither Ali or Louis would have any business being on such a list, either. There are far too many accomplished fighters in this sports history for either of them to be featured on any credible list.
