Your Second 10 All Time Heavyweights 11--20 ?

How on God's Green Earth does guys who ruled the division for a hot minute (Walcott, Schmeling, Tunney, Charles and Patterson) get in front of a decade who controlled it for a decade?

 

I read these 2 lists over 5 times thinking I'd missed his name, maybe I have.... I just can't get my head around a top 10 (5 even) without Muhammad Ali in it, never mind 20

 

And by that I mean greatness and likability

 

It's his favorite list ..to each his own ..but I hear ya

 

Even still. Point stands the same

Yeah no doubt, his opinion, just giving mine in return

 

Like I said, the order of the list after 11 and 12 is not really organised. If you want the Klitschkos at 13 and 14, be my guest and put them in that order. I put it together quickly and as names were ocurring to me. I'm not overly concerned about the order because I'm not convinced that there were that many truly great heavyweights outside of a top 12. Oh, and I forgot Jeffries and Corbett too so I'd probably drop a couple of names out now. The order of my top 10 changes all the time too so I'm even less precious about the top 20.

 

11. Marciano
12. Holyfield
13. Jeffries
14. Tunney
15. Langford
16. Bowe
17. W Klitschko
18. V Klitschko
19. Fitzsimmons
20. Sullivan

 

11. Wladmir Klitschko
12. Joe Frazier
13. Evander Holyfield
14. Jim Jeffries
15. Jersey Joe Walcott
16. Sam Langford
17. John L Sullivan
18. Gene Tunney
19. Vitali Klitschko
20. Floyd Patterson

 

This looks good enough for me .Give or take one or two changes .I have Holyfield in top ten so I'll slot Joe Frazier in there at 12

 

11 Langford
12 Dempsey
13 Marciano
14 Frazier
15 Charles
16 Walcott
17 Holyfield
18 Lewis
19 Tyson
20 Wills

 

Unforgiven, I'd like to see how your top-10 looks.
