    Listened to the pod earlier, must say enjoyed it a lot. Not enough debating or disagreements though :).
    The fab 4 always tough to put them in order. I always found Ray Leonard to be choosey with his fights but I suppose he could.
    I was surprised at your thoughts of Wilder vs Fury.
    CBZ's top pound for pound grilling a lot of emphasis on who people fought alone especially the classic fighters and nothing mentioned of eye witness accounts of the time which has to be held in importance because it's all we have results, newspaper write ups and eye witness accounts. A bit harsh on Corbett and Nonpareil Dempsey. When Corbett was considered one of the best defensive fighters and the best footwork of the early era. Each to their own :). I'm not happy with that list either :)

    And a lot of :icon12: to whoever it is that knows Jack Dempsey is the heavyweight GOAT.

    Enjoyable Podcast especially as I am looking for a good classic boxing podcast to listen to.

    Would you do me a solid and actually mention a real all time great on your podcast like Suga God Valuev, Middle aged Ortiz or Saint Primo? they're going to think you're uneducated savages at this rate discussing bums like Duran.

    Praise be to Preem and your excellent Podcast my man!
