  • Greatest Boxer “Pound for Pound”… Ever

                                  By David Martinez / Boxing Historian I have been asked many times “who is the greatest boxer of all time in any weight division at the height of his career” and that answer is the easiest for me to come up with – Sugar Ray Robinson.

Jorge Linares was well ahead [...]
