      I like your list and am a huge Trinidad fan.

      However, while I think Tito should be in the top ten at welterweight I'm not sure about overall top ten. We're talking about ALL BOXERS throughout history. So, it's tougher to say, but he's a great for sure and I've no problem with him being in the top 50. Tito was hard to beat in his day and was always fun to watch.

          I am a huge Trinidad fan but I still think he comes up short of being an all time top 10 best of all boxers of all weight classes. If he had stayed at 154 he would have a better chance at it. A KO loss to Hopkins and a wide points loss to Winky Wright hurt his record. He was at his best below 160 and before Hopkins. He was one of the top 5 all time greats at 147 and 154 in my opinion. He never lost at these weights and won 19 world title fights a row including 15 KO wins. He was a world champion at 147 and then 154 for ten straight years from age 20 to age 30.

            Tito, Marciano & Mayweather aren't top ten in history!
            Tito can be top twenty at 47, Marciano could be top twenty at heavy.
            Mayweather a top twenty at 130, at welter he gets beat by the greats.
            I'll take Tito over him by stoppage!

            Sugar Ray Robinson is TBE ATG p4p King!

                if you dont have fight footage,

                you cant be top 20 all time imo.

                you just cant be ranked highly based on hearsay and newspaper decisions over great fighters with fight footage.


                you guys know who im talking about.

                    Since it's your list, I can't disagree with you.

                    Question for you though; Ali, Louis, Robinson, Marciano. Did you watch them fight or do you feel that they just belong no matter what?
