        Let me enlighten you. The IBRO is made up of many of the worlds leading historians on boxing. Their ranking are based on a poll. Its obvious unless you want to turn a blind eye that more than a few consider him the greatest. But if you'd like to place a wager, say all your points and your next billion points, I can guarantee I can find the names of 5 who consider him the greatest.I don't mind doing the work, but Im gonna get paid. If not you will get paid. Sig it and it'll be done before midnight or you will have my payment in full. Deal?

                • "Greatest" implies a heavy focus on accomplishments. Ray Robinson easily has that. But the best of all time is a completely different story...

                    dude,

                    "the IBRO exists to provide a vehicle for individuals interested in boxing research to communicate these interests; to facilitate their research; to coordinate research activities and provide a means of meeting others who share these specialized interests"

                    anyone can be a member............it's a online paid community. am i doubting that there are a few guys within the group who know there ****? no......but there are much more well respected historians who disagree with the notion that greb is greatest of all time (greb is in everyones top 10) just not number 1. greb has always been between 4 and 7 on most lists.

                    real historians (respected world wide) like Mike Silver have Robinson as being number one (minus the paid online community) bert sugar one of the most respected boxing historians to date (if not ever) has robinson at 1.....

                    greb being number one is new to me & my first encounter of this was on boxingscene.com.

                    the online community that you posted they themselves don't list greb as number 1. (even though they still have greb extremely high) they also have duran over willie pep & Benny Leonard


                    online paid community...........

                    • if there is no footage of a fighter how can you say he is the greatest or even one of the greatest?
