Tyson is for this generation but not as great as those on the list. His reign was powerful but short.
We are talking about people who reigned for a long time here. I'm not taking anything away from Tyson but he couldn't have been the boxing GOAT.
Do you know about Sugar Ray Robinson and Joe Louis?
Those were beasts. I'd like you to watch their clips on ESPN boxing online or better still watch DStv SS 8 on weekdays from 12am to see these great boxers.
Ali also is good and could still pass out as the GOAT but Tyson cannot wear that crown.

Sexyjigga:
Muhammad Ali, Joe Frazier and Sugar Ray Robinson are the three greatest boxers of all time.

MrBrownJay1:
on paper, yes he is, but the reality is that, if Mike Tyson isnt on that list, then these people dont know what greatest fighter means.

forget their losses, MIKE TYSON is the greatest fighter that ever lived, no questions about it....followed closely by Ali.

MandalorianCree:

I think Foreman was better than Frazier. Foreman handed Frazier a brutal beating in their bout together. Frazier was a great fighter though, great left hook, won Ali once. But Foreman edges Frazier for me.

Sexyjigga:


You have a point bro... Only reason I included Frazier was cos of the 'Thrilla in Manila' bout and the fact that he fought Ali thrice.

Awoo88:

You don't know what you talking about. was Floyd getting young during those periods? Manny refuse a random blood test until it was no longer convenient for him to do so.

MandalorianCree:

'Thrilla in manila' was one of the greatest bouts in history, anybody that can step into the ring three times with Ali is a warrior. Props to Frazier, he's a legend and a great too.

ValCon888:
Any list where Cassius Clay a.k.a Muhammad Ali isn't the no.1 boxer of all time is a useless list.

I'm shocked beyond belief the list doesn't include Joe Frazier.

The Baddest Man on the Planet, the only boxer who throws punches in bunches, and the youngest heavy weight champion of all time Iron Mike Tyson is not even in the top 10.

The clowns that compiled this list are high on angel dust.

southpole:
we can't forget their losses , losing is part of the game, you can not strip them of their losses because you want them to be greatest of all times that will amount to injustice to the man who forght 50 fights without losing one.

Mehn you really don't know how boxing works do you? You fight the number 1 contender and some scrubs. Holyfield's prime was before Tyson's prime so how could they face each other? Holyfield was a cruiserweight champion while Tyson fought as heavyweight, how could they meet? It was not until after Tyson went to prison and Holyfield added some weight that they both were in the same class. DO YOU SEE NOW THAT YOU KNOW NOTHING?

MandalorianCree:
The greatest boxer of all time is Sugar Ray Robinson, Sugar Ray Robinson is the reason they created the pound for pound rankings where they compared boxers regardless of weight class. Muhammad Ali is the greatest heavyweight of all time. Ali beat guys that were killers, guys that instilled fear, Ali beat Sonny Liston, Frazier, Foreman, guys that were killers in the ring. What makes a boxer great is the level of opponents he defeats. Rocky Marciano was also undefeated in his career as a heavyweight boxer that doesn't make him the greatest heavyweight of all time.

Haba Nigerians, I tire for the way you guys reason and argue things.

Those you mentioned, can you give their records?

The list mentioned names and records which was compiled based on who has most clean sheet.
Going by clean sheet, May weather has it, he has never lost a fight, not even a draw. Alli, Frazier, Tyson all lost fights.

So what's your argument about?

Did they tell you they were compiling the hardest puncher?

What you just said was like arguing why they give Allison two golden gloves last season and not give it to either De Gea, Oblak or Neur...

Don't just write things without having a rethink otherwise, you make yourself either sound childish or stupid.

If it is by being undefeated Rocky Marciano will be on that list.

Again you argue without evidence. Google and show us record of Rocky...

MandalorianCree:

He is correct, Marciano was undefeated, Marciano also beat the great Joe Louise, albeit a washed up, past his prime Joe Louise.

MandalorianCree:

Not losing a fight doesn't make you the greatest of all time, just google Rocky Marciano. He fought 49 times and lost none. Mayweather is a great boxer no doubt, a master of defensive boxing, he's one of the greatest but not THE greatest. The greatest remains Muhammad Ali (according to boxing legends and boxing experts). For me though Sugar Ray Robinson is the greatest followed by Muhammad Ali.
