In your opinion who is the GOAT

OK, so is David Tua greater than Jimmy Wilde or Eder Jofre?

Depends. This is where P4P runs into reality. P4P, he can't lace their shoes. In a literal sense, of course he's better. That's why no one debates literal. Then all anyone would ever debate for GOAT is Heavyweights.

In a literal sense, David Tua couldn't carry Jofre's spit bucket. We have weight classes for a reason.

I throw back the question to you, do you think Tua can beat Jimmy Wilde or Eder Jofre 7 out 10 ??

Anyway the TS question is to name the GOAT and only to name one, my criteria is good enough for this and I stand by my selection of Ali as the greatest,as imho Ali could beat anyone 7 out 10, from past, present and future....

Of course Tua would beat Wilde or Jofre. That's irrelevant to any discussion as to who is the GOAT because they're of different weight classes.

Your criteria sucks.

lolz I know, but were picking just one as the greatest ever and there is no second best, I could not put a name that I think that could be beaten by another great henceforth my criteria...

WAS BORN AFTER 1990...
So for me
Floyd Joy Money Mayweather
GOAT

Tucan McGinty.

All time? Top thirty maybe.

[StarshipTrooper]

All time? Top thirty maybe.

Saw your name and was expecting "Danny Williams" :hah9:

So we can only crown our own GOAT from only what we've seen? That's beyond ridiculous.

I wasn't around when Ali knocked out Foreman, but I sure as hell know he did it before I actually got round to seeing it.

"Seeing is believing" is just another one of those bland quotes you stick in to a NSB post to try make it sound better. In reality, it's saying nothing though.

It really is a strange argument to be making

there is video footage of ali. we only have to look to youtube to see him fight. where the hell can i see that harry greb guy fight? people only mention these old timers whos footage doesnt even exist to sound clever. there is no way you can call someone the greatest if there is no damn footage of him anywhere

Walker Smith.

When your killing guys with one punch and dreaming the death punch exactly the night before, who really compares to that *****? Smith was in touch with spirit world. There is only room for one at the summit (on Everest anyway) and that seat belongs to Smith.
