    Good list although Spinks and Hearns should be higher.

    Come on man, having Bob Fitzsimmons and Jimmy McLarnin way below guys like Evander Holyfield and Julio Cesar Chavez must be a joke, surely?

    He was the most dominant fighter of the '70s. Not to mention beating Leonard.

    In addition to Duran dominating the 70s, add the fact that Leonard was inactive for two years in the 80s with others boxers being more dominant...namely Hagler.

    You think Alexis at 18 is acceptable? :think

    Three weight world champion with wins over Olivares (Old), Mancini, Ramirez, Chacon, Lamon, Escalera x2, Jim Watt, Edwards, Kobayashi, and Castillo.

    I didn't pick out every single placing I disagreed with, just the ones I thought were way off. I think it's acceptable to have Alexis around 25th, so I don't think 18 is that far off.
