When do you consider a boxer having already created a legacy?
Is it the number of fight? Quality of opponents? Titles won? His fan base? or Just merely looking at his boxing record?

A boxer begins his legacy by first becoming a Olympic medalist, The Olympic games has open the door for many of boxing's modern champions. Bronze medalists Evander Holyfield, Floyd Mayweather Jr, Alan Minter, Antonio tarver, and Jermain Taylor. Silver medalists Carmelo Bossi, Riddick Bowe, Ingemar Johansson, Roy Jones Jr, and Jose Torres. Gold medalists Muhummad Ali, Nino Benvenuti, Joel Casamayor, Oscar De La Hoya, George Foreman, Joe Fraizer, Wladimir Klitschko, Sugar Ray Leonard, Lennox Lewis, Floyd Patterson, Pascual Perez, Leon Spinks, Michael Spinks, and Pernell Whitaker. These champions are perfect examples of how an amatuer boxing career has boosted their professional careers. Quality of opposition and historical impact plays a major role as well...nuff said !

very nicely, you have have been given something talked approximately as a burden of evidence on you authentic now. and you have no longer proved something. All you have performed is provided your perspectives in an extremely 2 dimensional way. i ought to do the comparable for each president in our background. definite, background. you like your background curiously, why is Obama so distinctive? i do no longer think of Obama has "sealed his destiny" (which appears like a obscure dying danger). i think of he has created his legacy, yet you and that i might disagree on what that legacy is. i do no longer think of he has failed as an American president because of the fact i do no longer see a usual for failure. i ought to declare that Reagan failed as a president because of the fact he did no longer do specific issues and did specific issues badly. Why does Obama fulfill that criterion and not Reagan? What lies are you speaking approximately? Which lies from Obama have been so devastating that they have got led to us to "worry certainty"? Care to clean that one up? each and every baby-kisser lies, saying Obama is the exception for his lies is basically ridiculous. yet hey, i understand you basically think of it is all "leftist rubbish." you probable examine interior the path of the 1st couple of lines and stopped, if that. observe, despite if, that none of it is in help of Obama. None of what i've got suggested right here is sensible to him. i think of it is obscene to handle him as some form of criminal, nevertheless. i think of you're making a collection of unsupported claims that have not have been given any foundation quite. So flow forward and overlook approximately what i've got suggested. flow forward and act as once you are the authentic historian right here, the guy who knows all of it yet tells it to no one. in case you have have been given "evidence," do no longer carry decrease back. deliver it on. continuously chuffed to take a examine out the so-talked approximately as "data" human beings such as you deliver me and allow you to realize why your interpretation makes no longer in the slightest degree of expertise.

i use sugar ray leonard as a good example. when he knocked out benitez, kalule, and thomas hearns, that kind of sealed his legacy because benitez and hearns were both undefeated, obvious future hall of famers. few fighters have done that.
