and Jimmy Wilde.

Muhammed Ali was great, but more flash and style than substance.
The only problem i have with these so called 10 best fighters lists, is that the boxers people put in there lists just exactly how many fights have you actually seen of that paticular fighter ? I have only ever seen one Willie Pep fight along with highlights, i've never seen a Harry Greb fight i don't think the footage even exists.........

I don't know about Tony Canzoneri but i'll bet there isn't hardly any footage of him either. I only put fighters in my list who i have seen enough of to rate them, because basically with people like Harry Greb your just going along with other peoples opinions and not your own.
