Caraballo, Ahumada and Yaqui Lopez were all champion in most other eras types as well. Probably Freddie Dawson and Billy Petrolle too. Paolo Rosi...
Bomber, sorry. I'd forgotten that Billy had gotten a mention. The latter is one the best never to win the title.
Obviously Langford is top, considering that he's arguably the greatest anyway including fighters who actually won titles. He, Greb, Robinson and...
McCrory actually gave a fine effort against McCallum. Redeemed himself a bit from shitting the bed so badly against Curry and looking edgy both...
If we're separating ATG from great, then yeah, Ramos isn't an ATG. I didn't think to differentiate. He's a top 25 featherweight though to answer...
He's no Reggie Strickland.
I'd also potentially say: Barrera vs Valbuena Morales vs Espadas Jr Monzon in the Griffith rematch, though tbh Carlos was past his best by then....
You were the one who went off piste in the first place daft lad when you dismissed Ramos out of hand as an arguably great fighter, which gives the...
And?
I meant more in terms of ability for Nunn rather than overall achievement. Missed making it clear. Ramos was a great fighter imo. Lower end great...
Saldivar in the first Seki fight Sugar Ramos vs Floyd Robertson Marquez vs Salido Louis in the first Godoy fight Cervantes vs Furuyama Saddler in...
Agreed grey. Although I'm also partial to good timing/accuracy as an honourable mention.
I don't see that it should be that surprising, all things considered. He was a talented, dangerous fighter when on point and had attributes the...
Aye, well noted Georgie, the lagging your hand behind your centre of gravity to generate that extra centrifugal force. The likes of Louis,...
Hamed was only a small featherweight himself though, he was a bantamweight up to Euro level when that title still just about meant something. He...
I've got a feeling that Crawford will adjust after a slowish start and pull clear over the second half for a UD in a good fight.
Lockridge was clearly a better and more skilled fighter in a p4p sense and I doubt Corrales would even be able to make 130 same day. Next day...
What's your channel, X? I get little time these days to sit and watch full fights but I've been meaning to ask you for a while now so I can give...
Yeah, that above more or less. Any fighter who can be relatively discouraged or pushed into a negative survivalist mindset is unlikely to beat...
Sibson-Collins Trinidad-Blocker Kim-Ibarra Park-Espadas Saldivar-Robertson Harada-Aoki Avelar-Kim Louis-Baer Foster -Rondon
The ten bells at the AJ fight was touching. I've been in a funk all day since the news broke. Just watching him turning back Laguna time and time...
I sort of agree with what rock and George have said. Usyk is the greater and more accomplished fighter by some distance, deserving of a far better...
Good points X. He was defensively sharper too imo, better guard with his chin down and better minimalistic punch slipper. A far greater heavy...
Yeah, a similar thought went through my head as well. Not as far as a Rosario level pasteing but that Williams didn't always dominate aggressive...
Zivic is a good shout in fairness, I meant to acknowledge it in my previous post. A lot might hinge on the ref, but yeah, if you're too dirty for...
Ambers would've been an interesting dark horse I think. Very skilled infighter, strong, iron-willed and capable of countering on the move but...
Yeah I'm not convinced of Floyd being favoured over Chavez either partly for the same reason. It's not a mental pick by any means, but Chavez had...
Yeah, he was one of the sport's great natural phenoms. His condition nowadays though is a cautionary tale against dads allowing their children...
Close fight I reckon. Martinez had that extra gear and the sort of unorthodox edge that could unsettle a one-paced textbook operator who liked to...
Yeah that's my line of thinking. At the rate most prospects are moved these days, you'd have to be turning pro at about 13 or 14 which would be...
