Boxing Scene Members: Who Faught The Best Opposition In Boxing History?

[grayfist]

I think Arguello's name should be tossed into the list. He fought past, present and future champs:

Marcel (lost to Marcel in his first world title try, then failed to avenge the loss as Marcel retired after the fight)
Ray Mancini
Billy Costello
Jim Watt
Claude Noel
Aaron Pryor (lost twice to The Hawk)
Bobby Chacon
Rafael (Bazooka) Limon
Alfredo Escalera (won twice over Escalera; Escalera held the WBC SuperFeather title registering some ten title defenses before Arguello took it from him)
Royal Kobayashi
Ruben Olivarez
Boza Edwards
Jose Luis Ramirez
Navarette

that's on top of such tough contenders as:

Ruben Castillo (undefeated in over 40 fights when he faced El Flaco)
Roberto Elizondo
James Busceme
Andrew Ganigan (trhe original "Hawaiian Punch")
Arturo Leon
Rigoberto Riasco

Three of those champs' names (Pryor, Chacon and Olivarez) are in the Hall.

It's funny that a lot of ppl here say DLH and don’t mention Trinidad, when DLH made a career fighting Tito's leftovers...

1. Ali
2. SRL
3. Duran
4. Hearns
5. Hagler
6. Morales
7. Benitez
8. Gomez
9. Trinidad
10. Barrera

Prime Quartey beats Prime Trinidad

No Robinson???

[IwatchBoxing]

they fought the best to came out on top since we only talking about great fighters. I know there must be some journey men stacked just as much. Mostly its the ussal suspects..

Sugar Ray Robinson
Sugar Ray Leonard
Ali

[The Golden Boy]

Defenitly Holyfield, he fought everyone. Also Oscar De La Hoya.

[IwatchBoxing]

A lot of people adding DLH but not Duran (throws up)...

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Without question Ali. Countless hall of famers, ex-champions and 5 star fighters on his record.

[GunStar]

don't get me wrong, its still an amazing resume, it just doesnt compare to ALis because of all the controversy surrounding it.

The only controversy was the Hagler fight, which I though Leonard won & hurts me to say it. Actually Ali had more Controversy in his big wins then Leonard did.

The Leonard era was the best era of boxing history, Leonard is the only one to have wins against Hagler, Benitiz, Duran and Hearns.

Ali's big names were good, but not as good as Leonard's, especially when we're counting from the all time great P4P list of fighters..

[Amaro]

hands down sugar ray leonard, back then they were forced to fight the best of the best unlike today with this ***** moves fighters make
