Who do you all feel is the best boxer now.

I really don't have a favorite. I don't like Lennox Lewis and most the others are arogant ...... well you get what I'm saying.

Old time boxers that were cool were Rocky Marciano, Joe Lewis, and Sonny Liston. From what I have seen of the tapes I don't like Ali all that much. Of course I'm not much of a Bruce Lee fan either. :woo: (for all of you who are it is just my opinion so don't get mad at me)

Right now?

Roy Jones Jr.

Ever? As a fighter? A 20 year old Tyson.

Tyson at 20 was good. Best ever close.

Is the Roy Jones Vs. Tyson fight going to happen? Does anyone know.

I hope not.

Tyson doesn't deserve it and RJJ has nothing left to prove.

Nah! RJJ will win because of Tyson breaking the rules by biting ;)

He is just not hungry enough anymore and the mystic has been broken. Still he was tore off a strip by Lewis (much to my dismay) still I think at the rematch Tyson will get him.

Just needs to slip the jab and get inside.

Lewis is the best at this point as he does not fight bums and is a great fighter.

I'm a big fan of Roy Jones jnr also Oscar de lay Hoya is a tremendous boxer. i also think Joe Calzaghe is hugely underated i would like to see him take on Jones it would be good.
and Lewis has a long arm and is tall thats about it in my opinion

I'd say Roy Jones Jr. His ability is amazing, he has the Prince Naz flair with the almost Tyson power, best fighter I have seen!

Hard to compare him to a 20 year old Tyson, good point mmmmmmm

Lewis is best, without a doubt the best fight would be against Jones.

calzaghes good and I would like to see him fight against the german Ottke.

Pound for pound the best for me would be barrera and I hope Scott Harrison gets a crack at him soon. That would give Scotland a true world class fighter if he won.

Tyson's an absolute animal, I don't know if I could ever get a fighting attitude like his without getting a whole heap of traits I don't want.

Oh, I'm off topic. RRJ, yeah. I don't think Lewis is that good, he's good, but over-rated IMO compared to previous world heavy weight champs.

The thing lewis is missing is he does not have the publicity of the great champs - he still holds the belt but does not have the presence or leadership/charisma of a champ.

TYSON was a great boxer and a great champ its just the stupid grey haired pratt Don King that messed him up.
