Reactions
World title contender, Ashley Theophane, from Tottenham, London, responded to say: "Insert Floyd Mayweather and Roy Jones Jr. Take out Sugar Ray Leonard and Roberto Duran."
Many others agreed with the former British champ that Floyd Mayweather, who labelled himself "The Best Ever", deserved a spot on that list.
BBN Editor, Tim Rickson, added, "I think it's a list that contains most of the biggest legends in the sport, the names that appear in there cannot cause too many arguments, but inevitably it will still. No one will argue with the top four, surely! I wonder if the absence of any fighters from this century is because they aren't revered as much , and still won't be until much later after their careers have finished…"
