who the greatest middleweight of all time

[eazy_mas]

Hagler would kill Winky

[Da Iceman]

well winky is a great jr middleweight.

[Styx Bootleg]

Monzon or Robinson, Hagler 3rd. Not sure if loss to Leonard affects overall standing as he was way way past his best (then again, Ray was only a welter). Still, he makes top 3.

Off the Cuff:


1. Carlos Monzon
2. Ray Robinson
3. Marvin Hagler
4. Harry Greb
5. Stanley Ketchel
6. Micky Walker
7. Bob Fitzsimmons
8. Bernard Hopkins
9 Tony Zale
10.Jake LaMotta

Who did Ray Robinson ever duck?

Rockin'

"I'm too pretty to fight Charley Burley."

ps: I am aware of burley's management issues, and I obviously don't blame them on robinson

Who did Ray Robinson ever duck?

Rockin'

robinson ducked many of the black contenders.

[Piggu]

robinson ducked many of the black contenders.

Maybe he was racist...

Monzon, Ketchel and Greb in that order - three genuine forces of nature who would have flourished in any era.

Fleischer said that Les Darcy might have become greater than Ketchel if he had lived.

Robbie brilliant at middleweight, but no longer the genius he was at welter.

Mickey Walker a crushing body puncher at middle/welter - stepped up to lick the very dangerous Bearcat Wright who came in at 260lbs.

Marvin terrific too for my money - a little trendy to knock him right now, but a wonderful fighting champion of great courage.

Hell, gents, I don't know - none of us do!

Best regards,
