    Yo I haven't seen many fights of the guys who are considered the greatest ever like Henry Armstrong, Harry Greb (none to see) etc. so I will give you what I believe to be the top 5.

    Historical top 5:

    1. Henry Armstrong: Held feather, light, welterweight titles simultaneously then fought to a draw for the middleweight title and was robbed WOW.
    2. Sugar Ray Robinson .Best middleweight ever, probably best welter ever and was a great lightheavy too, a legend in every sense of the word. Not number 1 because he ducked Cocoa Kid and Charley Burley, Armstrong ducked NOBODY!.
    3. Muhammed Ali: Probably best resume in history, fought everyone at their peaks. A Legend, I love him.
    4. Harry Greb: Insane record, insane amount of fights and wins and gave Gene Tunney his only loss (was robbed multiple times against him)
    5. Tied Manny Pacquiao: Insane record. Insane rise in weight rivaled only by Armstrong. The most electrifying fighter in the history of the sport. Beautiful, a legend, the most exciting fighter ever.
    5. Tied Roberto Duran: A legend whose weight class destroying exploits put him up with the greatest. Beat Sugar Ray Leonard in their only fight when both were prime, a light weight who fought to 15 rounds against prime Hagler in a very close fight. A legend of the highest order.
