    One time out of six, and you sounds like someone who doesn't knows much about how good LaMotta actually was.

      Even with the loss, Ray beat him 5 times.
      With the names of Turpin, Graziano, Basilio, Fullmer, LaMotta, Gavilan and Armstrong, there is no way anyone in boxing history could break Robinson, if you want to make an argument for GGG, go ahead, but discredit SRR only drowns your argument.



      You don't get it. The point is he lost to a manic depressive drunk with absolute pillows and little boy arms. a head target so big, ray charles can't miss it. Yet still he knocked SRR through the ropes. L is an L is an L.




      HE LOST IN HIS PRIME. deal with it. the only fighter here that hasn't lost in his prime is GGG.

        According to GGG fans, GGG beats prime SRL, Roy Jones Jr, McCallum, McClellan, Jackson, Hagler, etc. Just don't put him in with Kovalev and Andre Ward.

        Got it.

          He would be a betting favorite against all of those guys. Heads up.

          More ways to win. Less vulnerabilities.


          He will beat SRL by smothering him like Duran did.

          He would beat McCellan into a coma. He is not genetically wired to sustain damage.

          He would KO Jackson. No chin.

          He would outbox McCallum behind the most elite jab in boxing.

          He would straight up out man Hagler. Better chin. Better power. Better ring intelligence. Or if he wants to he can straight up outbox Hagler. It's been done. Willie Monroe and some cab driver did it.


          They all lost in their primes btw. Unlike GGG.



          That leaves RJJ. RJJ seems like he could be a great match-up UNTIL you realize he's an ambush fighter. So he needs space to operate. What happens when the ambush fighter gets smothered? The rabbit keels over. GGG's fighting style is taillor made for the soft chinned ambush fighter. GGG will corner Roy and shatter that glass.





          GGG simply does not have the devastating weak points all those other fighters have.

            Larry used to swear it was impossible to determine how well SRR would do against today's fighters because not enough of his fights were filmed.

            SRR wins I reckon'.

              Good fight but Robinson wins 7 times out of 10. GGG has a great amateur record and is old school in his work ethic and weight
              Robinson, was slick, unorthodox, powerful and had the speed and footwork of a professional dancer. (Floyd had good footwork but not pro dancer footwork, tap being a fast dance at the time & current)
              Robinson at range and counter punching...

              Can't hotlink but Robinson & gene kelly ^^


              Fight I'd have like to see for as long as it lasted would have been prime Benn vs GGG. That would have been a war and Benn was vicious. GGG technically better but he wouldnt be able to give Benn a free shot nor switch off...Benn was relentless, all or nothing

                Pretty much all athletes are better today. We can't measure it in boxing but any sport with a measurement system basically proves athletes today are far superior and records are always being broken. Especially now compared to 50+ years ago.

                SRR wouldn't make it out of the second round with a top MW today.

                  You talk about ambushing and fighting toe to toe, but the truth of the matter is he wouldn't even fight Pepe La Pew toe to toe. How in the world would he smother prime Roy Jones Jr and outman Marvin Hagler?

                  Also, if it's that easy for GGG to beat all of the ATG's, he should have no problem with Kovalev and Andre Ward. Hell, he won't even make it past Jacobs if you ask me

                    That only shows he has different layers to his game. it's a plus, not a minus you idiot.

                    He can choose to outbox someone like hagler if he chooses.



                    He will absolutely ambush RJJ. RJJ was trapped on the ropes by a midget cokehead like Vinny Pazienza. what do you think GGG would do? GGG would hit that off button from RJJ's guard like he did Rubio. Or like Danny Green did to him.



                    BTW Toney and JOnes did move up in weight. but they are all proven steroid cheats. Same with Mayweather.


                    just LOL



                    we can make a ban bet when he fights Jacobs. I'll take GGG.

                      That must have been because someone posted a poll for ww srr vs mayweather.
