Sugar Ray Robinson. In a professional career spanning 25 years (1940-1965), Robinson did it all. He fought an amazing 192 bouts, losing only 19 - with many of these being in his latter years. Wins against the likes of Jake LaMotta, Randy Turpin, Fritzie Zivic and Gene Fullmer underline his credentials as the best ever.

The Mongoose, Archie Moore.Born Archibald Wright (December 13, 1913 – December 9, 1998), was light heavyweight world boxing champion between 1952 and 1959 (and again in 1961) and had one of the longest professional careers in the history of his sport. A native of Benoit, Mississippi, raised in St. Louis, Mo., he died four days short of his 85th (or 82nd) birthday, in his adopted home of San Diego, California. He was an important community figure, and became involved in African American causes once his days as a fighter were over. Nicknamed "The Old Mongoose", Moore still holds the record for the most career knockouts by any boxer, at 145. He also became a successful character actor in television and film.

Everyone know who the greatest is - Muhammed Ali. His record is let down slightly by carrying on to long. but the guy was unfightable in his peak. The names on his record is the true measure of Ali - think Liston, Frazier, Foreman, Shavers and Norton. The Greatest:

Marvelous Marvin Hagler had everything. Only beaten three times, but never stopped. His final fight was the SD defeat to Leonard - he was robbed. He knocked out the great Tommy Hearns in 3 rounds. Hagler has no peers.

Rocky Marciano Undefeated in 49 fights, Rocky has high profile wins against other greats such as Joe Louis (8th round KO), Jersey Joe Walcott (twice!) and Ezzard Charles (twice). Will any heavyweight ever beat his unbeaten record - I for one doubt it.

The Brown Bomber (Joe Louis). With all the prejudice and racism he faced, he still gained a record of 69-3. He lost to Marciano, but was well past his best by then. Joe Louis is the best there has been.

I'd have to say Pretty Boy Floyd Mayweather Jr, as much as I wish Hatton had whupped him. He's fought the best and had an answer for everyone of them I thought Gatti would trouble him - blown away, I thought De La Hoya would be to big - given a lesson, I though Hatton would put too much pressure on - we all know what happened. PBF is the greatest, unfortunately. I think he would have done to Duran what he did to Gatti.

ROBERTO "HANDS OF STONE" DURAN. Between 1972 and 1989 he held World Titles at four different weights (Lightweight, welterweight, junior middleweight and middleweight). In an era of great fighters, Duran stands out, beating the great Sugar Ray Leonard in their first fight, despite leonard being a naturally bigger man. His boxing career spans 5 decades and he most be number one due to progression through the weights.

The greatest i've ever seen is Sugar Ray Leonard. His speed, skill and all round ring movement was second to none. An upper class version of PBF. Wins against Hagler, Duran, Hearns and Benitez stand out in an outstanding career.

Iron Mike Tyson. In his peak, pre prison, he would beat any fighter on the planet. Nicknamed "Iron Mike," and "The Baddest Man on the Planet," Tyson won his first 19 professional bouts by knockout, 12 in the first round. He unified the belts in the splintered heavyweight division in the late 1980s. Tyson was the undisputed heavyweight champion for over two years, before losing to 42-to-1 underdog Buster Douglas in 1990.

What does everyone think of Monte Barrett as David Haye's next opponent? He looks ok, but has lost to Rahman, Valuev and Wladmir K. Should be a good test of Hayes chin though.

Hagler stayed at middleweight all his career, never took a challenge and moved up.

Duran may be better than Hearns and SRL (big may!), but no way can he be classed as any better than Marvellous Marvin Hagler.
