    would ray mercer have been the best cruiserweight that ever lived

    a fighter who was never in great shape as a heavyweight becuase of his small stature but dominated top contenders and only lost to champions who towered him , was robbed against the gigantic lennox lewis in which lewis still proclaims today was his hardest fight of his life. was beat by larry holmes but holmes had a seven inch reach advantage and mercer best asset was his jab, i just coulndt see any cruiser weight beating him even now at 45 years old

    I don't think there's any way a younger Mercer would have made 190.

    He was a Heavyweight in the Marines, and had huge legs.

      All I know is.....he was a knockout specialist at his old age. When he was younger....he obviously was the better rounded fighter.

          That's one of those KO's that gets worse and worse everytime you see it.

                  There are quite a few boxers that would have beaten Mercer at Cruiserweight and Holyfield is just one of them, Mercer has always been a heavyweight.
