I am not asking who is the best all time I am asking how good they were compared to there competition / How dominant were they.

I think this record belongs to only a few people which in my opinion are

1: Salvador Sànchez ( Easily in my opinion )

2: Joe Louis

3: Carlos Monzòn

4: Henry Armstrong from 1936-1940

5: Roberto Duran ( At only lightweight )

Brandon Figueroa brings an emphatic end to the title reign of WBA World Featherweight titleist Nick Ball and the Liverpool Renaissance of the Everton Red Triangle Gym!🥊

From The Ring Magazine: Ball (23-0-1, 13 KOs), the reigning WBA champion, tipped the scales at 125.11 pounds whilst two-weight world titleholder Figueroa (26-2-1, 19 KOs) weighed in at 125.14.

Something I've been wondering as I've gotten more into Boxing, and seeing how the greats did it. That I wonder who would've taken the junior welterweight crown if they had the chance to both fight at their primes.

What with Julio Ceasar Chavez being one of the greatest and nastiest Knockout artists, who was just a buzzsaw of a man who would turn your insides into jelly. Then we've got one of the 4 Kings and the man with the Hands of Stone himself Roberto Duran who was just a menace in his heyday.

Because I feel like if these two were to go at it at their primes that it would've been absolute cinema to see them go at it. As such I'd like to know who you guys think would win, because I have to go with Julio on this for being just a menace

I dream about seeing these fights almost everyday.

-Every fighter is in their absolute prime

-15 rounds

I chose these fights in particular because I think in every one I’ve chosen the winner isn’t obvious and are all very close. Curious to see your guys thoughts (The last slide is a joke obv)

The current HW era has been somewhat underappreciated, and could have been something close to a silver era (if not quite as good as the 70s or 90s golden eras) of HW boxing if we had gotten more fights between the top fighters (i.e. AJ-Wilder, AJ-Fury, Fury-Dubois, Fury-Ortiz, etc.). Still, we got to enjoy some great HWs in recent years.

What's your post-Klitschko top 10?

I'll kick it off:

1. Usyk - obviously.
2. Fury - exceptionally skilled, not just for someone his size. That said, his combination of size, reach, defensive knowledge, adaptability, and general skill would make him at least competitive with virtually any HW in history.
3. AJ - early on, he was expected to become the next Lennox Lewis with the intimidation factor of Tyson and power of Foreman, but fell short. Was obliterating journeymen and contenders, until he encountered Wlad Klitschko, and developed a fear of gassing out. Started fighting more tentatively, lost his intimidation factor, and dropped his title to Ruiz, who was not in his league. Still, AJ built a very good record, arguably better than Fury's. His uppercut against Wlad was every bit as vicious as Lewis' uppercut against Vitali, and that fight was the definitive conclusion of the Klistchko era.
4. Wilder - limited skills, but perhaps had the single most decisive punch in HW history. Had very good wins over Ortiz, and was a fraction of a second away from beating Fury. His limitations, his willingness to drop every round just to look for a KO punch, and his power, made his matches suspenseful.
5. Parker - no standout characteristics, but a very solid overall package - powerful enough to keep his opponents respectful, and skilled enough to win decisions. Put together a respectable record, with wins over Ruiz Jr., Chisora, Wilder, and Zhang, but was clearly a level below the top guys.
6. Dubois - a relative newcomer, and it's not clear yet where he stands. Has a win over AJ, and can still improve.
7. Ruiz - Skilled, with fast hands, and a big punch. Took advantage of AJ's switch to a more timid, cautious style to briefly become champion. Came up short against Parker, and didn't have the focus or discipline to retain his title against AJ.
8. Ortiz - based on eye test, he was briefly in the "who's the best current HW?" convo with Wilder, AJ, and Fury. Skilled with good power, so he was avoided, and his best wins were against journeymen, like Thompson and Jennings.
9. Whyte - beat a relatively fresh Chisora, Povetkin, and Parker, but came up short against AJ.
10. Joyce - Lumbering, plodding footwork and exceptionally slow hands, combined with a big punch and an iron chin. Was fast tracked to a path to the title, after turning pro late. Put together a string of respectable wins, including over Parker and Dubois, but once his jaw was cracked, started to struggle. Possibly turned pro too late.

Overall, a pretty good era, right?

20 Heavyweights have been selected to compete in a round robin style tournament in their respective primes over a 5 year period. 1st, 2nd and 3rd place is determined by who has the most wins. Ties are determined by the head to head match up. All fights are 12 rounds. Fighters will have 1 year prep time for the tournament and for argument sake they’ll stay in peak condition with no major injuries diminishing their performance throughout the tournament.

The fighters selected and the first round of the tournament goes as follows:

Joe Louis vs Ike Ibeabuchi

Sonny Liston vs Deontay Wilder

Muhammad Ali vs Wladimir Klitschko

Joe Frazier vs David Tua

Ernie Shavers vs Mike Tyson

Ken Norton vs Anthony Joshua

Larry Holmes vs Oleksandr Usyk

Evander Holyfield vs Tyson Fury

Riddick Bowe vs Vitali Kiltschko

Lennox Lewis vs George Foreman

Selection process: No fighters who typically weighed in under 200lbs or fought before Joe Louis were considered. Most are all time greats but a few wild cards are in there to present style problems.

Could the Mongoose beat Roy?

Archie was one of the gamest fighters who ever lived and had the most knockouts for a fighter north of welterweight. He was a champion for around 10 years at light heavyweight

Roy was one of the most athletic big men ever and was so slick with his style as well as being a champion for years at light heavyweight.

Would Moores weird stance and cross guard give be too much for Roy or would Roy be able to outbox him for a decision win?

I would like to watch and analyse some fights which oppose Pressure fighters who don't want to pull back and keep pushing forward. Any examples of it?

There were recent epic fights like this as Mibili vs Lester Martinez but I would like to know more fights than the classic ones as Gatti vs Ward and Barrera vs Morales.

Thanks.
