Top Heavyweights in 1992

[BIG H]

My mate bought an old Boxing programme from 1st October 1992 from a Car Boot sale today.

It had a list of the top 10 Heavyweights in the world on that date and knowing that I am a boxing freaky he said "Bet you can't name them all"

I surprised myself by getting all ten straight off the bat.................................but I only got 4 in the right positions!!


Can anybody do better ?? - Have a go!!





































No cheating -there's no point
