    For me...

    Ezzard Charles III
    Jim Bivins
    Elmer Ray I
    Elmer Ray II
    Joey Maxim II
    Joey Maxin III
    Ezzard Charles 4 (somewhat of a bad decision)
    Harold Johnson (a strange one)
    Lee Q Murray (another strange one)
    Joe Baksi

    I was so tempted to say it. I could easily switch out Charles 4, which was probably really a loss, for Louis 1, which a comfortable majority of those who watched thought was a win.

    For clarification on the "strange ones".

    Lee Murray was DQd for not trying.

    Harold Johnson pulled something in his back.

    Imagine if a modern day heavyweight posted his best wins and they were these:

    - Canelo Alvarez
    - Dimitriy Bivol
    - Callum Smith
    - Artur Beterbiev
    - Jermall Charlo
    - Jaime Munguia

    Now in addition to those wins, also throw in some losses to those same guys
