    I do not think like Chuvalo.
    Even if you qualify it by saying for the division or size of guys he fought, to be like Chuvalo you need to be never down over a long career, or maybe a brief down or 2 that were labeled a slippage.

    Cobb was KOed in martial arts, still he was about top notch, & given his massive skull & features, let is make it Cobb(cr)anium). ;-)

    For #1 all time I'll go with a man who fought forever & against modern size HWs + 300 + sparring rounds against Tyson & never tasted canvas.

    Let us call this Highest Rung...Atomic MC All Worlder.

    OK still gotta workshop that.

    Am I the only one who doesn't think Tyson has an iron chin? I can't see how his was strongers than Louis.
