    If you look at that list and then look at the stages of the careers of the names that actually mean something on it, you will get my point

    I have Holmes a top 5 heavy of all time, based on what I thought of him and the fact that (as you said) he fought the best available, but under scrutiny, those guys weren't great in any sense of the word

    70's was the best hands downs. Anyone who thinks otherwise is just ignorant of the sport.

    More depth in the 90's Perlease!
