    Does an ATG fighter look better historically if he had a NEMESIS?



    A simple question folks, does an ATG fighter look better historically if he had a nemesis?

    Can you name maybe top 5 ATG fighters from each group
    (a) with nemesis -- and who are these nemesis
    (b) w/out nemesis

    Maybe we can compare and contrast.

    Ali had several nemesis, Liston, Foreman, Frasier...

    Foreman did not have any real rivals or nemesis to my knowledge...

      Absolutely. If a prime tyson had better nemesis, he would be viewed better in ATG terms. There has to be a great fighter for another great fighter to beat, or else people just say they weren't that great themselves. People say this about Calz, the Klit Bros., even Floyd.

        hell yeah...look at the fights and hype to it..

        Ali-Frazier
        Tyson-Holyfield
        Tyson-Lewis
        ( i know tyson lost both these fights but it was a pretty good rivalry)

        Haye-Wlad or Vitali?? possibly??

              Question for the TS: Nemesis = Rival? Or not? I think they're similar terms but slightly different. Like Ali and Ken Norton, I don't think they were a nemesis to one another but they were sure fierce rivals...

                    I'd say Lewis and Rahman were nemesis's or even holyfield over tyson.
