    which decade was boxin tha best?

    which decade u guys think was tha best for boxing

    was it tha 1920's when jack dempsey was boxin
    or tha 1930s where joe louis came into play
    OR THA 1940's when sugar ray robinson started to make some excitement
    or tha 50's where rocky marciano a heavyweight legend started boxing

    or tha 1960's (i think) when there was ThaGreatest, smokin Joe, big foreman. Roberto Duran
    1970's - Larry holmes,gerry cooney, michael spinks. Duran, marvelous marvin, sugar ray, tha hitman.
    1980's- chavez tyson same welterweights as 70's
    or the 90's or 2000

    70s... with a moderately slower Ali and some worthwhile opponents it made his bouts more competitive. Though that's just heavyweights, obviously. I suppose you could answer this question weight class by weight class.

    Ali, Frazier, Foreman, Norton, Quarry...

      I'll take the 70s (with carry over from late 60s and spill over to the early 80s) when the likes of Pryor, Arguello, WGomez, SSanchez, Mancini, A young Azumah Nelson, La Porte, Zarate, Pedroza, Kobayashi, Harada, WBenitez, Alfonso Zamora, Little Red, Saad Muhammad, Quawi, Cruiser Holyfield, etc., were giving the heavyweights (as well as Leonard and company), a run for the fans' admission money.

          Toss up between the 50's ( Marciano, Ezzard Charles, Arhie Moore, Ray Robinson, Jake Lamotta, Basilio ) and the 80's ( Leonard, Hearns, Duran, Hagler, Chavez, Etc..)
