    Ketchal ? McCoy? Langford? The only 3 I can think of that have the power

    Logically there must have been a middleweight with the power of Fitzsimmons, Ketchell, McCoy or Langford since their day.

    It would be nice if they could retroactively remove the Roldan KD that was actually a slip. Don’t want that fact being lost over time for those who don’t look beyond stats.

    They should have a Mount Rushmore for greatest in chins in boxing. Best 4. Marv’s a lock but could you imagine a huge replica of Randall Tex Cobb’s head carved out of stone? They’d have to have a warning sign stating that at least one of the monument’s depictions may be distressing to kiddies (and some adults too I guess).

    If Marv had ventured up in weight to light heavy, Bob Foster.

    Odd to mention McCoy, when Fitzsimmons was pretty clearly the bigger puncher and better finisher.

    Can't favour any 160lber doing it. At best I can see a St. Valentine's Day Massacre kind of stoppage by SRR but Hagler's not being dropped and counted out.

    I honestly didn’t even think of Fitz, and to be fair I don’t know much about McCoy other than he apparently hit like a freight train

    Nobody at MW. He was one of the best ever. If not, the very best.
