He would have beaten Fulmer due to size but I like Fulmer more as a complete fighter. YOu forgot Greb, FItzimmons, Zale, Ketchel... there are a lot of them.
Agreed 100%. I like Lamotta as much as the next guy but it seems like he gets way overrated for the fact that he beat Ray Robinson and gave him a string of tough fights. Styles make fights and Lamotta was a tough match for Sugar Ray, but like you said Lamotta was bested by a lot of good fighters as well.

IMO Lamotta doesn't belong in the top 10
