Best of a nation: Netherlands
Who is the Netherlands' best ever, pound for pound?
Re: Best of a nation: Netherlands
I would have to go with Blanchard. But could see Tuur getting considered.
Re: Best of a nation: Netherlands
Lucia Rijker is not mentioned? Seems like discrimination to me, especially considering the quality of the other contenders

On what grounds would you rate Blanchard over the likes of Bep Van Klaveren or Luc van Dam?Floyd wrote:I would have to go with Blanchard. But could see Tuur getting considered.

Definitely Bep Van Klaveren. He beat Ceferino Garcia, was supposedly robbed vs Young Corbett III in there first bout, and also beat Kid Azteca, Kid Tunero and Baby Joe Gans, along with several top European fighters.
