    :D I made my case for YC3 and i have a strong opinion about Teddy Yarosz and regard him highly. I'll think about a tier and perhaps make a case later if no one is speaking for him.

    I got a guy on another forum pushing for him to be higher - I'm thinking on it tbh.

    I've got no qualms with Marshall, I just feel Oscar did a helluva lot as well, through a lot of weights. The funny thing is, Butt is saying Oscar only lost to fighters once he fought guys his own size.

    Quartey was huge compared to Oscar. If that's a guy his own size Butt is holding his standard a little too high. And A guy using BALCO is Oscar's own size now? :lol:

    His stats are insane. Not the greatest fighters but all you should have to do is beat the guys in front of you IMO and a lot of his big wins are from doing it as an underdog.

    Underdog wins in big bouts count a lot, for me anyways.

    Loved the Williams discussion a few pages back. Wish I was there for it. Gotta have him somewhere in the top 40 at least IMO :tong

    OK, i've slotted Young Corbett (YCIII-MK2 to give him his apparently commonly known robot name) into VI and Marshall into VIII. I was looking at VII but too inconsistent I think.

    If anyone feels strongly that Corbett or Marsahll is too high/low, speak up my dudes.

    I also drew Driscoll and Norfolk back into holding. With no opinions on them either way i've gone with my own instinct that it might be a little too soon for them.
