as much as a joke as sven ottke can be he wasnt actually as bad as made out. maybe one for the more effective than they look thread

i wonder if mundine has nightmares about one punch sven

Freddie Welsh, Marcel Thil and Nino Benvenuti.

No mention of Bob FItzsimmons?

I'll give the even earlier Jem Mace a shout too since he rarely comes up. Middleweight champion of England, then went on to be the Heavyweight champion of England, and then later also the Heavyweight Champion of America. So arguably the first world heavyweight champion. Later would help train Bob Fitzsimmons and Peter Jackson.

Jimmy Wilde

Bob Fitzsimmons is up there although I think he emigrated to New Zealand when he was about 2

Lennox Lewis is my numero uno.

Jimmy Wilde, Joe Calzaghe, vitali klitschko... Dariusz Michalzewski had a brilliant resume

Lomachenko won't be far off by the time he's finished

Do you think froch deserves to be so low in the ratings? He fought a better opposition than naz but naz is higher than him. If i was to choose my top 3 it would be lewis wlad and calzaghe based on results if it who i liked it would be lewis froch and hatton these guys didnt dodge anyone and didnt bow out when the going got tough,naz fought a modern great got beat and couldn't get back in the gym after it also he didnt really fight a great opposition upto that point. Froch tough as nails and loved a tear up hatton always came to fight and gave 110% and lewis was a master boxer who could fight if the going got tough.

Jimmy Wilde is no 1 I'd say

I think he was more about 10 when he moved.
