    I agree with you here 100%.

    Dimitrenko vs. Thompson wouyld be a good fight, as would the rest of the ones you posted. The problem is the lower level contenders are too afraid of adding a possible loss on their records.

    The eras of Ali & Lewis are arguably the very best in the history of the Heavyweight division. Many other eras don't stack up as well.......................

    i agree 100%

    this era is no worse than the one larry holmes or marciano or patterson fought in.

    it's mainly because the highest ranking guys aren't american so don't get the exposure.

    Why would Chagaev be lower than Valuev and Arreola? I can't wait to hear this.

    Solis above Adamek, Thompson, Povetkin, Arreola & Chagaev is a bit ridiculous too. Please explain and I'll try my best to have an open mind.

    100% true. You can add the eras of Tyson, Jack Johnson, Jack Dempsey and many other ATG Champions to that list as well.

    You could even argue that Joe Louis era wasn't that good also except for the fact that his era lasted so long or for so many successful defenses.
