    I would take points away from fighters that never fought outside there comfort zone ie PBF, RJJ. Thats where old school guys like Ali and Tyson score high for me because they fought all over the world, true World champions
    Sorry but RJJ beat 4 HOF's Floyd Mayweather beat two top 10 P4P fighters, aswell as a load of other good names like RJJ did. I can't believe you say they never fought outside there comfort zone. When they moved up so many weightclasses. Then say someone like Mike Tyson fought outside his comfort zone, when he avoided more fighters in the 90s than i can count on my fingers and toes.

    guys, how would you put lewis, holyfield, holmes, foreman and frazier in your top 100.. i may have overrated lewis and underrated foreman but im ok with that placing. foreman is not a top 50 guy for me...how would you rank these heavies?

    no I know they both moved up and beat quality opponents but what I meant by never fought outside there comfort zone(probably the wrong phrase) is that they fought there whole carears in there own country, and I know people say RJJ was right to because of the olympics but for me a true great ie Ali fights and wins all over the world
