It maybe easier if we all just done the top 10 fighters in each weghtclass, that way it would be easier to do a top 100 list.

I have always said the ATG system has been terrible because historians have to idolize the past it happens in every sport, it happens in every subject. The past hyperbolized to the point legend becomes "reality"
That being said I will still try make the best list I can with help from Bert Sugar and his views of some guys that came before my time and before they had extensive clips of fighters. I mean regardless of him being a crackpot, he definitely talked to guys who saw these people fight, and he definitely saw a lot of these guys most haven't seen fight.
Re: Top 100 All-Time Greats: Post your list here...
Think you should try to get like say 20 greats form each era then try to form it but some are tough because we have never seen them fight.
