Is Roberto Duran A TOP 10 ATG?

[BennyST]

That scrub Ezzard Charles lost 25 times!

For my real answer, I have Duran at #13:
1. Sugar Ray Robinson
2. Henry Armstrong
3. Harry Greb
4. Muhammad Ali
5. Willie Pep
6. Ezzard Charles
7. Sam Langford
8. Joe Gans
9. Benny Leonard
10. Archie Moore
11. Joe Louis
12. Carlos Monzon
13. Roberto Duran

I think a good case can be made either way. I think the 12 fighters I have ahead of him belong there, but Duran was indeed a phenom in every way. I do think Gans is the clear cut greatest Lightweight of all time, though.

I know! What a bum right? Name one fighter today with more than a few losses that would ever be considered great? 25 losses? That's bum/journeyman level.

I was beginning to wonder as a new member here that I wasn't seeing Pep or Archie on anyones all time whatever lists. Pep was a boxing master and considering the injuries he suffered out of the ring and then return to fight at a high level is unbelievable. As for Archie how much Moore do you need to see and read, he was a marvel!! Ray.

a top 25 might be more realistic to be fare to a few more great boxers.
