    Note:

    "Spoon, Dokes & Page" were paper champs, but I really believe they'd beat / KO a few of the lower listed dudes who were once lineal champs....... Seriously....

    That's a reasonable ranking at this point, imo.

    This is really quite an upsetting list to look at. There'll be decent boxing fans who will **** themselves on cue after looking at that list, just terrible.

    Vitali and Wladimir should be top 20 at least.

    It depends on the measuring. If you only consider his achievements and who he fought, then he's barely in the Top20. If you take his overall "package" into consideration, then he is in the Top5 imho. There are only a few fighters that can match his physical attributes (height, reach, chin), ring generalship, cleverness, power and iron will. He is - unlike Wlad - a true warrior.
