Pound for Pound who do you think was the best fighter ever?

I would have to say there isn't one. Everyone is only one punch away from victory, or defeat. What do you think.

That's a toughie

So very very hard to say. Could certainly be Ali, could certainly be Rocky Marciano. How do you choose?!

I wouldn't say Ali, he won a lot of fights on his name. Also Ali held behind the head on clinches. He rabbit punched too and the refs wouldn't call it. Marciano could definately be the greatest.

'Sugar Ray Robinson'... that's where the "POUND FOR POUND" term came from!

But did he fight the best of the best, and everybody in those weight classes? Because I sort of doubt it.

How does a foul make Ali any worse or any better p4p. Some people claim jordan traveled and the refs didn't call it does that mean that he wasnt the greatest basketball player ever?

The competition Ali and Marciano faced was very different both in size and ability. Plus dont forget no one ever saw Ali in his prime, we missed out on what would have been three of his best years.

p4p greats

Robinson

Ali

& maybe just maybe

Pritty Boy Floyd Mayweather

Mayweather? Ali? Ali relied on his reach to keep his oppenets away, in P4P reachis not a factor, Ray Leonard would do good in P4P.
