Greatest wins of all time?

[Keko]

The scores were ridiculous and Chavez quit so yeah, something was up

should not be exaggerated for scores but quit was

You think he didn't quit in that fight?

I think it's a little weird end of the fight and that taking points was very stupid.Chavez was happy sure and he wanted to end .

Whitaker's genuine win over Chavez was a pretty big deal. Despite the drama from the judges.

No one took the decision seriously. Except Julio's rumpswabs.

It was however, a sad moment for boxing since corruption was on display so openly.

But a great "win" nonetheless.


It's lower on the list than many...but every great win I could have named has already been named.

Whitaker vs Chavez draw was complete nonsense.

Whitaker vs Chavez draw was complete nonsense.

But we all knew who won, and we all knew how the process got corrupted....so the emperor had no clothes.
So I think of it as a solid win for Pernell that he can wear as a badge of honor. And Chavez still has to live down.

Salvador Sanchez's victory over Wilfredo Gomez at Caesars Palace was highly significant for a few reasons. It brought him in to the mainstream and it was a bout between two all-time greats in their prime. I would describe that a "great, great win.

Gomez was moving up in weight against a bigger, younger man. It was a very good win, not great.

It was a great win. Gomez was a 2-1 betting favorite that night. Most experts at the time picked Gomez to win as I recall.

I agree they weren't Roberto Duran. They weren't quitters.

And still, Manos de Piedra was better than most of them in my view. Considering the circumstances, going into someone else's weight class and whupping their asses, was amazing. All without estipulations like some fighter I know did.

The great Roberto Duran: The best fighter of the last 50 years? Yes, he was! Just look at his fights.

It was a huge great win. That win put the great Salvador Sanchez in the map with the all time greats. No excuses!

Leonard over both Hagler and Hearns are both great wins.

Tyson over Spinks is massively overlooked.
