    #11 as in just outside of top 10? With Freddie Welsh and Willie Ritchie in top 10? Is this a joke?

    The lists are pretty good.
    Considering he obviously only ranks fighters in ONE division at a time, the lists are fine.

    He might have got confused there with jr.light and jr.feather.

    Mike McCallum is the biggest ommision.
    Look at the 154 list. Can't see him there where he belongs, or elsewhere.

    Gomez at 9 in the Junior Feathers is still my favorite. Never defeated at the weight, held the title for 5 years, made about 17 defenses, stopped the guy that ko'd his number 7, who incidently lasted about 5 minutes at the top and stopped his number 1 to boot. A defense against Zarate isn't too shabby either.

    Yeah, Ritchie is clearly too high.

    Strange why Pacq is not rated, possibly because of all the d
    Agreed...missing at JMW.

    Horrible list. Absolute rubbish.

    Rating Dempsey or Tunney over Holmes and Tyson is a proclamation of ignorance.

    How about Buster Douglas over Tyson?

    I think you did a pretty good job with the welterweights, on the other hand he may have been having a bad day when he was puzzling through the middleweights.

    Quick thoughts:


    Heavyweight? No Lennox Lewis? Tunney at #5?


    Cruiser Weights. Pretty good, but people seldom care about them.


    Light Heavyweights, decent at the top, poor at the bottom.


    Super middleweights: Average, this division is rather new


    Middle Weight. An absolute mess. Cerdan #2? Lamotta #4? Flowers and Tiger in the top ten?


    A really bad pick:


    Strawweight, Bong-Jun Kim #1? Who? I had to look him up. He was 24-10-3, and hardly fought any highly ranked guys.

    No.Lewis,Holyfield, and Liston should be in the top heavies,certainly before Tunney ,and Langford should be in the l
    hv's imo.
    Carpentier does not belong in the 175lbs top ten,where are JH Lewis,Dillon,Johnson,Delaney?
    Cerdan doesn't deserve a top ten ranking at middle SRR undoubtedly does,Flowers shouldn't be there either imo. Freddie Steele should.
    No Napoles,Lewis, or Britton at 147? Mayweather,PacMan,Whittaker?

    I just noticed that Bong Jun Kim was so good that he was rated as #1 and #8. Now that's a good fighter.
