Do you consider the Top 50 to be too many?

OK LETS DO THIS:

everybody name 10 VERY GOOD/GREAT fighters who do NOT belong in the Top 20

[Fenster]

Good question. No it doesn't matter where you are ranked as no list will ever be definitive. Just being mentioned as an all-time great should be enough. I can't even name 50 heavyweights without boxrec, so I guess 33 or 39 is utterly irrelevant.

[Fenster]

Here's my top heavyweights. I don't think i've left out many all-time greats, if I have these guys would batter them anyway.

1. Lennox Lewis
2. Muhammad Ali
3. Evander Holyfield
4. George Foreman
5. Mike Tyson
6. Joe Frazier
7. Vitali Klitschko
8. Jack Dempsey
9. Riddick Bowe
10. Earnie Shavers
11. Wlad Klitschko
12. Joe Louis
13. Larry Holmes
14. Sonny Liston
15. Gary Mason

Gary Mason . What happened there? Could you only really think of 14?

[ross]

Do an all time top ten of greatest heavyweights based on their career achievments then,musing the same fghters do a top ten on who would get the most wns if they were to all fight each other.

Gene Tunney
Pinklon Thomas
Gentleman Jim Corbett
Max Baer
James J Jeffries
Ingemar Johansson
Max Schmeling
Jersey Joe Walcott
Jake Kilrain
Bob Fitzimmons

I was going to put Herbie Hide on my list but after deep deliberation went for Mason as, a hundred years ago, whilst sitting in a traffic jam in his mini, he waved and gave a "alright boys" to me me and my mate when we shouted "Gary"

[Master]

Yes it is top 20 at most and Herbie Hide and Gary Mason are not in it. Neither is Bruno.
