SIMPLE; the best/favourite boxer of all time! Don't agree with the list? Vote for an existing item you think should be ranked higher or if you are a logged in, add a new item for others to vote on or create your own version of this list.The Top Ten
you know why? because he is the best.
Name a boxer he ain't influenced!
He said of himself, he was the best heavyweight. And because he was the larger man, not the better boxer he would have beaten a Sugar.
Pound for pound Sugar was the best.
Roy Jones wouldn't win against Sugar with both men in their prime even if they fought ten times!

combining lightning speed and reflexes with ko-power - he had the complete package.
He was so fast, this enabled him to do what he wanted to, although it surely wouldn't work out for anybody else.
Unique!
Should have fought more in his prime and easily beat everybody - he had no opponents.
Should have end his career after his heavyeight-title-fight.
Poor and sad career-ending.
>"hits like a heavyweight and moves like a lightweight. " ~ George foremen

sugar ray is one of the greatest boxers of all time. Leonard was 1 of the most versatile boxers the game has ever seen, from he speed,his ring generalship&toughness.u fools have him ranked at 20 goes to show that u guys don't know nothig about boxing.Lets end on a reel note Aryon Pryor were is he rankm on your list. The Greatest jr welterweight of all time. Up grade your boxing knowledge.
Speed Speed and more speed. A sugar ray flurry was a thing of beauty. Then to do the windup at the end was a thing of beauty. How you couldn't love some of his classic bouts, Hearns, Duran etc.
Absolutely the greatest, never backed off a challenge

The Contenders
The best, he beat Tyson and had a lot of good fights and beat a lot of people. He just beat somebody a few months ago at the age of 49!
A great fighter! Even better than most of these boxers and has obviously still got it! World Champ and beat TYSON a few times!
He beat Tyson a few times and he just recently won a fight over somebody, at the age of 49! He is an amazing boxer!
More comments about Evander HolyfieldCome on! He was one of the gretest heavey weights his time.
Most feared boxer of his time, was undefeated for 7 years, destroyed the legendary floyd patterson 2 times! In under 1 round and many others of his time, only the legendary muhamad ali defeated him in his prime and that was in very shady circumstances. Should be at least in the top 10 in my opinion
Remember, he knocked Ali's ass to the ground and won the first fight between them.
"strong body with strong upper cut and was a real champ"
Feel sorry about his untimely death... Bye bye joe
Great boxer... But never got the respect he deserve... Heavyweight class was weak during his era... Even weaker now!
The greatest UK boxer of all time! He beat Tua, Tyson and Holyfield! He can beat anyone if he tries his best!
He beat legends like, Mike Tyson, Evander Holyfield and even David Tua! He can battle with anyone if beat all of those three!
More comments about Lennox LewisAlways the boxer, on the move, taking on anyone. Great puncher. Best of all time, pound for pound.
If he were to movie to become a Heavyweight he would've easily become one of the best of all time, probably in the top 5. Felix Trinidad as the greatest Puerto Rican athlete of all time. Felix himself is a great Middleweight boxer, one of the fastest punchers and has great foot work, very hard to take down.
Felix Trinindad will knock out anyone, best Puerto Rican Athlete of all time besides Carmelo Anthony. But anyway about boxing, I reckon he could take on Ali
More comments about Felix TrinidadSalvador Sanchez was so amazing in his time, RIP a legend in Boxing History
Great latino boxer, one of the best fighters to ever step in the ring!
He was the youngest world champ he should be #1
More comments about Salvador SanchezOldest champion ever at 46.. defintly needs to be in the top 10 forsure.
hopkins can adapt to any style and may win by late hnockout or decision
Move like a boxer. Hit like a brawler
The greatest! He just needs a true challenge to prove himself! He still is the best no matter what! He is what you think Ivan Drago from Rocky IV was like, that is who he is based upon, except the steroids which he doesn't take!
The greatest of all time! Should be in the top ten, hasnt really had a chance, he has fought bums his whole career!
He is the greatest world heavyweight of today and is tonnes better than Mike Tyson! Anyone can tell you that!
More comments about Vitaliy Klitchkoto the ficht ,all of a sudden ,we would se everyone was coming out the other door,we tought it was a fire or something,when we asked ,the reply was Duran knocked him out in less than 1 min.,this man was without a doubt,the greatest latin american fighter of ALL times!!!!
Gabriel is without a doubt the greatest filipino boxer in history! Even better than Pacquiao. He is responsible for 88 wins and one of the most respected figures of all time, RIP Gabriel FLASH Elorde
Elorde is the greatest boxer in the world no doubt! He will beat anyone in the ring and outside and is so much better than Manny PAcquiao! RIP you legend
The "Flash" is the best featherweight of all time, world champion! He would beat any body, I mean he won 88 fights! RIP Great boxer of the Filipino Islands!
More comments about Gabriel Flash Elorde46-0 21 title defenses longest raining title holder (bout 11 years) in recent years super fast punches better than any 1 else
Unbeaten. Fought and beat number 7. How can an undefeated world class boxer (Boxer not a fighter) not be considered. Is it because he's not American?
46-0 simply the best... money pakyaw is ugly... sergio martinez and joe calzaghe are the real deal...!
More comments about Joe CalzagheGreatest fictional fighter of all time! so full of controversy and was undefeated!
ZOne of the greatest fighters that ever lived, loved his boxing style, unique, also a great human being
Every time he went up to the ring nobody can beat him.. He is the next champion of the world
Them all.
Top Ten, you gotta be freaking kidding me, Mickey Ward lost to Gatti, and Gatti had a broken hand!
Watch his 3rd fight aginast Ward then argue
Lister101
Top class technical boxer. A true viking warrior. Perfect boxing style, elegant and fast.
He's so good that even his defeats have been retroactively exhumed from his record. No other champion in history has had a loss removed, because it would be both inaccurate and unfair for a talent as supreme as him to have anything other than a perfect ledger.
A phenomenon. He was the original young brash and flashy G, long before fake G Mayfeather stole his M.O.
Lost his debut but is most talented boxer of all time should get a rematch with Andrew Hartley to get his first pro win and shut the haters up.

Bosslike performer. He simply a boss. He was a beast is a beast and will forever be a beast. Do you really need more? He is nearly unbeaten
December 8th 2012. See what he did to Manny Pacquiao. No one has ever done what Marquez did. Also, to this date (December 2012), NOBODY HAS EVER knocked him out; all his losses (except the Mayweather fight, where he had to go up two weight divisions in a couple or months amd wasn't ready) are questionable decisions. Marquez is definitely the most underrated fighter ever!
The guy is a true warrior
He was ahead of his time by so much I think he could've beaten Ali. For all we know he could have the skill of a futuristic boxer. I'm mean he could beat ghy twice his size easily like his fight with Primo Canera.
"Most powerful right hand in heavyweight history"
IownU
Please! The only decent fighter he's beaten was a half-starved Danny Green. Left his beat work on the footy field.
Surely he is one of the best boxer in the world. Chris "The Dragon" John. With Unbeaten record. WBA Super Champion, more than 10 times defending his title. Awesome, full tehnic, with only a few KO his opponents is proved that he is fighting beautifully round to round in his career
Amir khan is great fighter very brave and his hands speed is so fast
The southpaw that was robbed of victory of Julio Cesear Chavez and Oscar Delahoya.
Lady Boxer From India. She is Just 23yrs Old & 5 Time World Champion in A Row. 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010.
tayal5001
True champion, true gentleman true legend in and out the ring. Just a real shame everyone was too scared to
fight him in his prime could of been tested and proved to be one of the best ever. Huge heart and huge punch!
Beat Roy JOnes Jr first round that says something yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
One of NZ's top heavyweight fighters next to David Tua
Greatest Light Heavyweight of all-time, who also was the best Heavyweight in the world for a spell.
The greatest Olympian boxer, everybody knew he was the greatest, even Ali avoid to fight him
What are you saying, bobby pacquio is much better than eric morales,?
Arguably the best fighter to come out of Australia; certainly ahead of fellow countrymen Anthony Mundine and Danny Green (both of whom got into this often puzzling list).
Nice Power And Speed in his Jabs and uppercuts
2 time world champ and one of the greatest left hooks of all time
