    like i said i think its his top 10 favorite fighters cause it doesn't say its the top 10 fighters ever- cause if it is its very wrong

    but like i said if its his top 10 favorites i could agree with most of those being butterfly's favorites

      Sadly I do not think that's his personal favorite list, I think he really ranks those fighters in that order in terms of greatness.

        not really greatness. i rank them by how they would do against each other head-to-head in their primes.

          It's personal isn't it? Joe Louis would be higher if it were an all time great one.

            no, it's not personal. i just don't believe louis could defeat the fighters that i have ranked above him, that's all.

              Nevermind those silly "fantasy" matchups that run through your little brain...

              Ken Norton > Muhammad Ali

              Ok, commence excuses.

                then Marciano should be at three under Ali and Foreman because those are guys that he'd have the most trouble, not to say he'd beat the other guys but like ya know

                i can't even say that though because the entire list is just so shuffled around thats it hard to say Marciano would be in third unless all the other fighters are moved around, but Foreman would give Marciano more trouble then ali so if you were to move everything around Marciano would probably be under Foreman,ali

                not to say jack dempsey, etc, wouldn't give him a good fight/run for his money

                  ali beat norton twice, and he wasn't even in his prime.

                    ken norton beat him in 73 (though ali won the rematch)

                    i do however think ali was in his prime for dancing and footwork/handspeed in 67 as you said but honestly i think he was a better fighter after the layoff because he seemed stronger and smarter then he was in 67

                      he wasn't smarter. he just didn't need smarts in the 60s cause he was physically too good.
