Jones, Hopkins, and PBF are not top 20 fighters. Hopkins and Jones are top 40 or so...PBF isn't.

Robinson, Greb, and a few others are too low. Chavez could be higher or lower. Depends on your criteria I guess.

PBF lower than Jones?

strength of opposition, BOXING skill, defensive wisdom, record in title fights and opposition in those title fights, divison titles (esp. WBC titles), length of undefeated reign, and the Jones' DEVASTATING KO's to Johnson and Tarver. Floyd would never have been hit with that Tarver left, and would never have been defenseless on the ropes against Johnson's attack. Floyd over Jones in terms of greatness. Accomplishments and skill...and PPV buys if you give credit to generating income to the business.

I respect u a lot KG, just dont see Jones over PBF, or a decent argument for it.

Oh wait...he beat John Ruiz.

And you think that is more than someone who was a 3 division champ,who defended his super feather weight belt 10 times and defended his light welterweight belt 15 times ,He unified the lightweight and light welterweight divisions.Was the p4p king for 4 years and defeated future h.o.f Hector Camacho,Edwin Rosario,Jose luis Ramirez, and very good fighters in Ruben Castillo,Roger Mayweather,Tony Lopez,Meldrick Taylor,Mario Martinez,Rocky Lodrige,and Juan La Porte.He has the record of most chamionship bouts than anybody ain history.And was 89 an 0 when he first lost.And has an impressive record of 107-6 and 86 k.o's.I mean besides those wins of Villa what else did he do?I already stated what Chavez did.

He beat Jimmy Wilde whos higher than him THE MAN. ABe attell was once considered the greatest boxer p4p. For Flyweights to get recognized in these ATG lists, they must have been very special coz frankly they are often ignored

Why give S.Sanchez credit ? he beat Gomez and had a hard time with everyone else.. I see him in most top 50. He died young, he had unrealized potential. Same here, the kid died at 24.
I love JCC hes in my top 25:deal

Good point on Sanchez.He did beat the best 122 pound fighter ever in Gomez.And one of the best super feather weights ever in Nelson.I guess him and Villa should be ranked more or less around the same.But Chavez I believe should be higher than both for the points stated.But that is just my opinion.I respect yours.

I respect u a lot KG, just dont see Jones over PBF, or a decent argument for it.

Oh wait...he beat John Ruiz.
PBF isn't 34.....he isn't past his prime. You can't say what PBF will be hit with. At the same age as PBF, Jones had hardly lost a round, much less a fight. PBF has 2 close decisions on his resume at this point.

PBF has less title defenses, fought less champions, less top 10 contenders (I believe, need to check on this particular fact). He has beaten one ATG to Jones 3 ATG. Jones unfied a division, PBF has never unified a division. As a matter of fact, Jones has as many title defenses at LHW as PBF has on all 5 weight classes he has been in.

As for skills....PBF has more technical ability but no where near the athletic ability. Jones was more dominant and rated higher for a longer period of time.

As a matter of fact, the ONLY thing PBF has over Jones besides technical skills which Jones made up for with his athletic ability is more titles in more weight classes. And Jones skipped a weight class....

If you want to count Jones past his prime losses against him, thats fine by me. As long as you do the same for others. Jones is at the end of his career, PBF isn't. PBF could easily be stopped in his mid 30's.

PBF's pay per view buys are high off of OTHERS. Jones never fought a DLH or a Gatti.

As for who they fought for their titles? Jones fought Hopkins, Toney, McCallum, Tarver, Griffin, and Ruiz to gain titles. PBF fought Hernandez, Castillo, Gatti, Baldomir, and DLH. They are very comparable and IMO, slightly in favor of Jones.

Nothing I say here besides the argument on skill level is subjective. The argument can be made....unless you add in subjective things like who you think is a bum regardless of his ranking or title status. I could do the same and ruin PBF's resume.

If you don't believe Jones is a legend, but PBF is, why don't you guys start a poll and see who wins. I already know the answer since it has been done before...2 times.

And if you don't rate Jones in the top 100 fighters ever, then we have no need for a discussion because we are miles apart.

Most boxing historians disagree with YOUR opinion. Jones fought nothing but full time police officers and sanitation workers. He handpicked his opponents. What's his biggest win? Beating Hopkins when Hops was way too green. Beating a severely weight drained Toney? Beating the weakest of the heavyweight champs in Ruiz? WHy didn't he go after Holy or Lewis? Because he knew he'd get destroyed. Jones' resume is very weak IMO.

Actually most boxing historians agree with me. Bert Sugar is the only man I know who disagrees thats a "historian". Go get the lists you are referring to, and bring them back as proof.

The police officer was a garbage fight admittedly. The Sanitation worker became lineal champion and just fought for the LHW title AGAIN. Don't exaggerate. There are very few of those public servants on Jones resume and you seem to be repeating what you have heard. 19 of the 28 men Jones fought after he fought Hopkins were Top 10 ranked or champions.

You can give your opinion of the fighters he fought, but it won't change what I posted. Anyone can post that a fighter despite his ranking is a bum or whatever. I can say the same about many of PBF's fights.

Kid Chocolate is to high, and the fact that Langford isn't on the list sort of undermines the effort in my opinion. He is top 2 for me, top 5 for many, top 20 inarguably.

But this becomes confusing. You have to specify exactly what your speaking about. Many people post their top 20 and its taken to mean their objective list of what they consider the top 20 fighters of all time.

If we go down the road of personal favorites, the lists are full of subjectivities and lose meaning, and personaly I wouldnt even read the them.

It also gives someone an out for a ridiculous list... making it easy for them to say its their personal list and lies outside of objectivity.

This is also stupid and this game can be played both ways. Lets try it.

Mayweathers best wins:

Corrales- weight drained
Judah- overhyped bum
Baldomir- paper champ (who beat the overhyped bum and the C level fighter)
Gatti- C level fighter (Floyds words)
De la Hoya- old has been

And about your reference about Roy not fighting Holyfield or Lewis after coming up in weight. Did PBF not just do the same thing? He fought Oscar at 154lbs and left the division to go back to 147lbs (because its his real weight genious).

Somehow I figured someone would point that out.....I can pick apart anyones resume if I am allowed to dismiss their ranking and championships. The whole point of having the rankings is to get some idea of how good the fighters are (though they are not perfect). We can dismiss them all we like,. but then so can everyone critiquing everyone, then no one has fought anyone unless they were elite level. Below elite level, we can make excuses left and right about how this fighter isn't as good as perceived.

BTW, As has been said a dozen times here when this question comes up, Lewis admitted to turning down a substantial offer from Jones after the Ruiz fight because he wasn't sure if he was going to retire. So Jones wanted to fight him....

Oddly enough, when Hopkins was talking about fight Maskaev, and Toney fought Ruiz, no one asked why they weren't fighting Wladimir Klitshco. Why Jones is held to such a lofty standard is beyond me.

Not really.Your arguments against Jones could easily be used against Trinidad. Once you have declared open season on calling Top 10 contenders and former/future champions bums, anyone's resume can be dismantled.

Last time you posted a diatribe on Jones resume, you dismissed 10 or more champions or top 10 contenders and "chumps". That is not a very strong argument. If you can't fight champions or the Top 10 for good competition, who's left?
