Best boxer ever. Any weight. Any era.

From 90s onwards, so fighters I've seen and witnessed...

Pacman has to be up there. In fact I would probably say he's been the best. To work.his way through the divisions like he did was incredible. He just went on too long.

Canelo would be 2nd. Another incredible boxer who has dominated his own division but also challenged multiple divisions.

Mayweather was unbelievable at what he did but his record shouldn't be a good as it is. He's had a few home decisions over the years.

I really like Usyk and think he's exceptional. Irrelevant of he gets beaten by Fury.

Lewis is the best heavyweight of my lifetime.

Also honourable mention for GGG

At one point Pacquiao was incredible. He had a run of fights where he destroyed people. I remember watching him dismantle Miguel Cotto, who was a tough man, but by the end was in bits.
 
For me, Pacquiao was the best in my lifetime. Had some incredible fights. Some of his fights with the Mexicans are the best I’ve seen, particularly the ones against my personal favourite ever boxer, Juan Manuel Marquez and Eric Morales.
 
Mike Tyson at the front end of his career. Truly the baddest man on the planet.
Like most Boro seasons, went a bit pear-shaped towards the end!!
 
90s Roy Jones Jr needs to be in this conversation.

The 4 kings?

Before my time but sugar ray Robinson and Harry Greb from the black and white days

Joe Calzaghe.

Absolute class act. One of my favourite ever fights was when he fought Jeff Lacy. The media were hyping up Lacy as the next big thing and Joe gave him a boxing lesson from start to finish. It was an unbelievable performance. His stamina levels were phenomenal. Also loved the fact that his dad was his trainer and together they conquered the world.

It's a shame Froch Vs Calzaghe never happened as I would've loved to have seen Joe give him a boxing lesson also.
 
British: i am with zzzzz joe calzaghe by a mile different gravy.

Hate to admit the other one but Mayweather for TBE his record and the guys he fought it was big name after big name and beat them convincingly for me apart from De La Hoya fight very close to a finished De La Hoya . You could argue pacquiao was a great of this era too id give you that and what he did going through the weights was so impressive but then meeting his match with Marquez and that brutal KO and the loss to Mayweather.

It’s a great debate and makes the sport so interesting 👍 UTB

I'm kind of glad it never happened. By the time it was getting talked about age was on Frochs side and the issues Calzaghe had with has hands, Froch could have beaten him. It would have been a massive disservice to Calzaghe and we'd have never heard the end of it
