    he is even a shade over 6 FOOT TWO.

    Marvin Hagler is 5'9
    Leonard is 5'10
    Hearns is 6'1
    Carlos Monzon was 5'11
    Ray Robinson was 5'11



    Tarver was the only significantly taller opponent and that was @175


    Hopkins was not a big middleweight. Chavez and Pavlik were big middleweights.

    You dont stay in the same weight class for 20 ****ing years without rehydrating more than 10 pounds if youre super big. The big guys move up because they cant make it anymore.

          Try as hard as you can but you can't change the outcome of the poll, using the same objective people posters like you cosign whenever they take shots at Floyd.

          It's ok dude, it's not surprising Manny fans on NSB have drastically different opinions than boxing journalists and historians since they actually follow the sport.

            i respect you bruh that's your stand, but me as a boxing fan, i don't follow anyone's list like a zombie. I have my own list based on my standards.

            Tell me, are these historians of yours are boxers or have experienced boxing? do they have degree in boxing? have they tried fighting floyd or pac or ali where they based their ranking? unless they do, their ranking is as good as only an opinion like mine.

            If you can sum up all the rankings of all the boxing fans in the world, that's the real ranking.

                Funny thing... Pacquiao achieved more and has the better resume of the four (there's an argument that sweet pea's resume is better) but he'll probably lose head to head if they we assume they were all fighting in the same weight class.

                Really depends on how you define greatness, but I think resume and achievement should be taken into higher consideration than fantasy match ups.

                Pacquiao is the worst ATG fantasy fighter of all time

                  This post is ******ed. Did you fight anyone of themm

                  The list of voters is in the thread. The people voting in the poll have more time in the sport than you. Your standards are nothing more than who you like. There's oily scan educated opinion based on a set of criteria applied to each fighter equally.

                  That's the reason it differs so drastically from the poll above.

                    Lennox Lewis was the best HW champ since Ali. Neither Mayweather nor Jones jr are fit to carry his jockstrap. my 3 are Lewis, Paquaio & Hopkins
                    in no particular order

                      After doing a little research, ive found that manny pacquiao is indeed the greatest fighter of this generation. all four are clumped together and are all time greats
