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

[GunStar]

Sugar Ray Leonard has more big wins against all time greats then anyone.

Hagler
Benitiz
Hearns
Duran - twice

No one can match these wins, he's beaten some of the best of all time.

[Easy-E]

Ali, SRL, ODLH.

[Easy-E]

but he still beat everyone there was to possibly beat

Yeah, but that doesnt mean he faced the best comp.
Or close to it.
Lennox's regin reminds me of Hopkins, except Lennox lost twice.

[Verstyle]

my list still stands, those ppl took what they had infront of them and won in there primes

[GEOFFHAYES]

Leonard has an under-rated resume - during his prime he never clearly lost a fight whilst facing guys like Johnny Dundee, Johnny Kilbane, Rocky Kansas, Freddie Welsh, Jack Britton, Ted 'Kid' Lewis and Lew Tendler.

[PATO 1]

lewis level of comp imo is better than hopkins

[GEOFFHAYES]

I reckon Charles and probably Greb have the best win resumes of all time, Robinson's ain't too shabby either. Archie Moore's is up there too. Moore's overrall opposition is arguably the best of all time; I rate him #1 in that aspect, the second place going to Langford.

[oldgringo]

Ray Robinson...

Angott
Servo
Zivic
LaMotta
Armstrong
Bell
Gavilan
Olsen
Turpin
Graziano
Fullmer
Basilio


That's a lot of HOF fighters right there.

first of all, he lost to hagler (robbed) and was being beaten up by hearns before the fight was unfairly stopped. (woulda prolly been stopped later on, but u gotta give a fighter a chance, ya know?)
and then he lost to hearns the second time. HE even admits that, he was given a gift draw

ANd he lost to duran once, but i guess thats because he chose to trade instead of act smart

and u forgot dave green, which was easily leonards greatest KO victory.

and floyd mayweather, who he knocked out in 9 i think.

and those are some great wins, but they dont compare to ali or robinsonIMO.

But just beacuse they beat the people in front of them, doesnt mean they faced the best.
