who was the greatest ..... robinson or ali

[pjo479]

ask many a boxing purist and fan and this one raises many questions but im gonna go with robinson slight edge over ali and here is why.... Ray Robinson 179 wins, 19 losses, 6 draws, 2 no contests, 109 KO.even Muhammed Ali referred to Sugar Ray as the greatest fighter ever... i dont think much effort has to go into who is 1 or 2 as this is my opinon as to why i think robinson is 1 but there is no argument that either one of these guys are 1 and 2 :good

Robinson by rear naked choke

[El Bombasto]

Ali was "The Greatest", the greatest boxer ever was Robinson hands-down, no contest

[Guido]

Even Ali admitted the SRR was the best ever -- Ali even based his style on Robinson's. There's no reason to debate this anymore.

[Toopretty]

yeah.blah..blah Sugar was the greatest boxer ever..Ali was the greatest heavyweight mainly b/c he fought and beat everybody.thats why..I mean past his prime.. 3 years in the clank...shit....This is no longer boxing debate. This is fact.

[Dempsey1238]

Ross, Armstrong, Canzi, Fitz, all have good reasons to be rank over Ali imo.

[Imperial1]

Robinson is number one and ALi is a strong # 2!

Is "not Greatest"

"but Best Ever"

[Jennifer Love Hewitt]

This isn't even close. Robinson is the best boxer. Robinson was well schooled. Ali was talented. Robinson had all of Ali's great qualities and talent, plus rock soild fundamentals.

:rofl Thanks for that, really!:rofl

[Sonny Carson]

Ray Robinson is the greatest p4p No. 1 ever. Ali is the greatest Heavyweight in my book though.

[Irish_Southpaw6]

Sugar Ray

[salsanchezfan]

I'll take nothing from Ali, whom I consider the best heavy ever, but in all honesty, I don't know a hell of a lot of knowledgeable boxing people (well, NONE actually) that would rank Ali anywhere near second P4P all time. He simply doesn't merit it.

Top ten..........maybe. I've heard that. Might even be believeable, but not second.

[salsanchezfan]

The only one who was never defeated...the ROCK ( 49-0 )


.................Oh fuck, here we go. :-(

[Toopretty]

Fuck marciano and his elbow throwing ass. with the mob having there goons at your fights you cant lose..elbows...the hell was that shit..harry greb the best of all time...FUCKKKKK NOOO...he was a great but not better then

[Napuis]

Harry Greb was better than both of them, any true boxing purist will tell you that. Ali maybe makes the top 20 pound for pound fighters of all time, while robinson is easily top 5, usually 1 or 2.

Name 20 better boxers than Ali.

Name 5 better boxers than Sugar Ray Robinson.

Tell me how many times you've seen each of them...I bet they're prehistoric 19th century dinosaurs like Jack Dempsey and Harry Greb that no-one can truly analyse.

Sugar Ray Robinson is without doubt the best boxer in the history of the sport.
