The Best Between 180lbs & 190lbs?

[Bronson66]

"I could slip more punches and be more defensive ,but it bores me." Robinson....

[Bronson66]

Please pick your top ten fighters who boxed fairly regularly between180lbs and190lbs,when prime.
I'll name mine but in no order,if you want to rank yours in terms of greatness, feel free to do so.

Dempsey
Langford
Marciano
The above stand out from the pack for me....

[Bronson66]

Well said.
I'm a big fan of both Beterbiev and Bivol ,both carry themselves with class.

I made Beterbiev the winner last time because of his late surge,but he is aging and I'd not be surprised if Bivol wins the rematch....

[Bronson66]

I'd say the prime version of Tucker would have had a good shot at it.I also think Tucker may have beaten Mike Spinks, who ducked him to defend against Cooney in a more lucrative fight. As has been pointed out Tucker was in decline by1994....

[Bronson66]

Once inside what is to stop a fighter 50/60lbs heavier than you simply tying you up and lying on you ,and draining you of your energy?...

[Bronson66]

Does anyone think any the less of Beterbiev for his candid answer?...

[Bronson66]

We can break it down to one sentence that explains Berberbiev's sensible conclusion, and his brilliantly honest answer.

At Heavyweight and Cruiserweight, Usyk is too big and strong for me.

This will be denied by certain posters here , and ,because they have no other logical...

[Bronson66]

Are you agreeing with yourself again? Were you getting lonely? lol...

[Bronson66]

Who knows? It seems some have trigger points,that set off a Pavlovian knee jerk response in them.Just don't ever give out your Home Address on here. lol

[Bronson66]

I'm confused here M,
Didn't Ward win the vacant British Title when he beat Tom Cannon?
Can you tell me what evidence there is that the Cannon fight was fixed please?
And didn't Ward legitimately successfully defend his title against Simon Byrne?...

[Bronson66]

You just posted I'm ******ed, so which is it , advanced or ******ed ? lol...

[Bronson66]

As someone who regularly asks posters for an explanation of their opinions and will go to the lengths of calling them arrogant if he disagrees with them.
I'd like an explanation from you as to why you think Beterbiev will not entertain a fight with Usyk at either his current poundage or at the...

[Bronson66]

Exactly!...

[Bronson66]

Let's say Artur rehydrates to 185lbs or so , he says he is still too small....

[Bronson66]

Berterbiev rules out a rematch with Usyk and Cruiser at heavyweight and says Usyk is too strong at those weights for him and says only at lightheavy would he fight him .

SIZE MATTERS!

[Bronson66]

See above post!

[Bronson66]

Sweet Pea is a good shout,imo....

[Bronson66]

I don't think 168 would have suited the slim Robinson,but it would have certainly benefitted Lamotta who struggled to make 160 lbs for years....

[Bronson66]

Kearns never trained anybody,something else I've told you before.
Foreman turned pro weighing219lbs
In1970/71 Foreman was in the 220's.

All whilst with SADLER . One L....

[Bronson66]

His pro resume directly contradicts your claim ,and not for the first time....
