Pound for pound putting together all Weight Divisions, whom do you consider
the greatest boxer of all time?

Sugar Ray Robinson. He was the original P4P king.

Rocky Marciano.

He's the only undefeated heavyweight champion having never lost a fight in his professional career.

Thats the truth merciscool,he's my Fathers fav and mine is Ali although
Suger ray Robinson comes a close 2'nd for me..

As to ren07 answer, I can understand why.

I like Ali alot as well. It's kind of hard not to.

I'm willing to bet the man would have been a success in anything he would have chosen to do with his life, because in general, he is just a really smart person.
In my opinion, his intelligence gave him an edge over his opponents and he has an unmatched charisma.
It disappoints me that he has had such trouble with parkinson's disease, as he would have undoubtedly changed the world even more.

That is indeed true merciscool.
Ali was once asked on a tv show what would he have been if not
a boxer ,his reply was probably a garbage collector but that he would
of been that good he would of been 10 bins ahead of everybody else

I totally agree he would of been successful at anything !!!

As for current stars, I'd really like to see a Pacquiao vs. Mayweather match.

what do you think?

I think Pacquiao would end Mayweather's streak and it would be well deserved in both directions.

are you kidding me!!!!! no one said Joe Lewis? to me he was the best pure boxer In their prime Iron Mike would take all...his head movement was the best of all time (until distractions took over his career) his speed, strength, and defense would be too much.....but as for my all time fav. fighter has to have been Wayne McCullough aka "the pocket rocket"....some of the best fights of all time...saw him fight with a broken jaw and eye socket another time with a broken hand....a true class act both inside and outside the ring
