BookWorm got a reaction from Fred H Crawford in Boxing and MMA
Aye that all sounds pretty fair, although I can't help but always have Ali as the GOAT. Maybe more nostalgia than logic at work there though, even though Lennox Lewis at his prime was an absolute stand out and understandable all time great.

He was either 3rd or 4th. Tyson was 2nd. Holmes was right up there. Holyfield didn't do as well as I'd rate him.
Wish I could find it again, although that particular forum doesn't exist any more.
It was only over the past 50 years. It may have been '65-'15
As said it's all an opinion, but I found it fascinating as it ranked the fighter putting them head to head and seeing how they came out in a league. It gave interesting results.

BookWorm reacted to JWAC in Really nice post about Dujon Sterling from his agent on linkedin
https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7171740870398976001/
I often get asked if I enjoy my work as a Football Agent.
Of course, there are times when it’s incredibly mentally and physically challenging. Much like a player, but in a hugely different context.
But there are times when it’s the best, and I mean the best job in the world. Just like last night:
Benfica v Rangers in Lisbon, last 16 of the Europa League 1st leg - which ended, against the odds, 2-2 with Benfica coming from behind twice (with two gifted goals from Rangers).
Dujon Sterling, who as many know, I have looked after for 9 years since 15 years old, scored his first senior goal in 137 attempts (I’ve probably watched most of those games!) What a goal, what a new memory. An many also know, in 2020, Dujon’s career was so nearly ended by a sudden illness, that kept him out the game for 10 months.
What struck me as it went in, standing on my own amongst 3,500 delirious Rangers fans, was what it meant to so many others.
To Dujon: it was his reward for the battle he won in 2020 and never giving in.
To his Mum: a moment that emotionally rewarded her for the countless hours since he joined Chelsea at 6 years old for her love and support every step (or run) he made.
To the coaches and staff of various clubs/ England (to many to name): a wonderful sense of joy for Dujon knowing his journey and the part they played at some point. My phone went crazy as he scored.
To everyone at Rangers (staff/teammates): it’s a team effort from start to finish and a measure of the hard work put in by all.
To those partners behind the scenes (the boot companies, the lawyers, accountants, concierge, insurance, mortgage advisors, barbers, car salesman (endless list!) who know Dujon.
To the media/ journalists: you know who you are and who have never doubted his ability and spoken about it.
To the fans past and present: an unreal bond through thick and thin. Rangers love him coz he gives 100%. He is an elite talent. The fan next to me last night was drunk with a thick Glaswegian accent. Couldn’t understand a single word for 90 mins but when Dujon scored he jumped on me, hit me in the stomach and kissed me 😂 another very special moment.
To Dujon’s close knit friends, in and out of the game: you never doubted.
To my wife, family, friends: thank you for understanding and being there. Countless messages as the goal went in.
To my other clients/ their families/ colleagues: again loads of messages/calls sharing the happiness of the goal.
Football is the biggest sport in the world. It forms part of the wheel of life for so many, for most of their lives. It’s a tough workplace for all involved.
But moments like last night, make it so, so satisfying….and enjoyable 😉
Have a good day everyone. And never stop believing ⚽️ 💙
P.S. in the 2nd leg next week Benfica will experience Ibrox at its firey best. Can’t wait. ✔️
