  • Comment Thread: The Greatest Ever! Ranked By Their Accomplishments.

    Since "The Greatest Ever" Accolade only applies to undefeated fighters so...

    So theirs only 3 of note and we will rate them by who they beat.

    Greatest Ever

    #1. Joe Calzaghe - Defeated Fighter of the Decade Roy Jones Jr, and Defeated ATG HOF'er Bernard Hopkins.

    #2. Rocky Marciano - Defeated HOF'er Joe Louis who is considered one of the greatest heavyweights of all time.

    #3. Floyd Mayweather Jr. - Won a Split Decision against Oscar De La Hoya.

              This at won't last long. But I'm sure another will take its place.

                I think Corrales was mayweathers best win, and marciano waited till Louis was out of his prime to fight him. And calzaghe should have a 1 on his record because he lost that fight to Bernard Hopkins

                  I agree with the first two but mayweather doesn't belong on that list. He is hardly top 100 of all time, let alone top 3 of anything... EXCEPT defense, I can place him in the top 20 best defense of all time.

                  His best wins have been against shot, past their prime fighters. I don't see how one could make an argument for floyd being a legit champion.

                    He makes a good point but some of you seem to be missing it.

                    Even if being undefeated were a prerequisite to being the "best" ever...... Floyd wouldn't rank #1 among undefeated fighters
