I love De La Hoya he is my 2nd favorite fighter of all time and i definetely think he is in top 3 best boxers of 90s and top 20 boxers of all time but not top 10.
I like the fact that willie pep could win a round without throwing punches!!! thats how good he was.

I agree with some of them,but there are a few fighters that are listed that shouldn't be,especially seeing how Salvador Sanchez wasn't mentioned.

...maxie rosenbloom by all means. drove his opponents nuts because he was so hard to hit...had to be a great boxer as he had no punch and fought about a gazillion fights.

will give this more thought when i have time...right now i'm working on my toe fungus to get ready for the beach season.

I wouldnt rate Armstrong in the best BOXER category. He was a pressure fighter with a high workrate. Dont get me wrong he could box as well but he wasnt in the same league as guys like Pep.

Jones Jr. shouldnt be there either. He got by on physical gifts, a healthy dose of bums, and steroids...

I can only do top ten for each weight class.

Whenever I do top ten all time I tend to forget alot of names.
