Doug Fischer's top 10 fighters since 1980 do you agree lets discuss

[-PBP-]

Anything done before 1980 doesn't count for the list

1) Ray Leonard
2)Pernell Whitaker
3)JC cHAVEZ
4)Hopkins
5)Holyfield
6)Hearns
7)Hagler
8)Manny Pacquaio
9)ODLH
10)Mayweather


Not a bad list...I'd swap some guys but he really got me tripping with Floyd being below two guys he defeated and guys he defeated more champions than and more title defenses and title fight wins...Also no Roy Jones, Ricardo Lopez or James Toney really got me scratching my head

I know this may rub some the wrong way but I rate Leonard very high all time, but from 1980 his record is 10-3-1...IMO he should have a loss to Hearns just like JCC should have an L to Whitaker and arguably Meldrick Taylor...also Hagler is top 5 all-time as far as middleweights but his resume isn't as deep as some try to make it out to be and truth be told, Hearns even though he lost to both won titles @ 5 weights, got screwed out of a win over SRL and fought waaaaay more fights than they did after 1980


1)Roy Jones
2)Floyd Mayweather
3)Pernell Whitaker
4) Ricardo Lopez
5)Pacquaio
6)Hopkins
7)Evander Holyfield(I doubt we'll ever see another fighter be undisputed champ at cruiser and heavyweight)
8)Julio Cesar Chavez
9)Tommy Hearns
10)James Toney

Chavez too high, Pac too low, Floyd too low, Roy over Oscar.

It is what it is tho. This stuff is all opinion so I don't care about the order as long as the right names are there.

[The Hammer]

True. Its like he threw him at 10 the same way Freedom always throws a non white european fighter at 4 on his lists as a defense against him being called out for being biased.

Are you biased, Big Dunn?

[BTL]

wlad should be on there.

[The Hammer]

wlad should be on there.

Most definitely.

[Eff Pandas]

I for one am completely shocked this creepy mfer who looks like a ****sexual serial killer came up with this awful list. F#ck Dougie.

Not opposed to Leonard being on the list, but #1 seems super high with all the subpar **** he did later on & those retirements have to tarnish you vs other cats. I tend to think anytime we are looking at so many fighters the #1 guy isn't gonna have a pause on his resume at all cuz its so competitive at this level.

Also where's Ricardo Lopez. I feel like Lopez is one of the most underrated great fighters just cuz he can't ride the best roller coasters at Disney World.

If :

Jeff Chandler didn't get cataracts

Michael Nunn & Donald Curry didn't become stunads

&

Salvador Sanchez didn't have his fatal car crash

I could see them all fighting for a spot in my top 10

That is a bad list. Good fighters, but horrible ordering of it.

[Picazo]

This may be just a list of his favorite fighters over the last 30 years not the best fighters but I think that list is HORRIBLE especially if we're talking about the best. Roy Jones should be added onto that list. The only two fighters I would place above Floyd are Leonard and Hearns. How is Oscar placed above him when he not only beat Oscar, he beat guys who also beat Oscar? I know someone will say the guys were past their prime but so was Floyd. Not only did he beat Manny he beat the guy who beat Manny. And Hagler should be above Holyfield even though Holyfield is way more popular I think Hagler overall was a more well rounded fighter.

Completely agree.

[UNBIASED BOXING]

Roy Jones, Hearns, and Leonard are my top 3 since 1980.

If you wrote down the names of your top 20 fighters since 1980 and pulled them out of a hat you'd do about as good of a job.
