    I get why you say only do the classic divisons but it leaves out allot of fun ones. Super Middleweight for example.

    I have set a minimum of 25 votes before the Heavyeeights can be posted, i will do the same for the classic weights, new weights will just need 10 votes. Once they have been posted I will let people add on still.

    Rob you really know **** all about boxing history do you? How can you have made a list yesterday in which you were daft enough to rank Patterson at number 3, and then, instead of going and watching some fights to change your mind, you read what Flea has posted and decide to change your top 10 about and drop Patterson completely. I honestly wonder if you are fan of boxing or just a fan of making lists.

    id say keep the 8 divisions and anyone from the super / junior category assiign them to the division that if those divisions had never been brought about where would they have fought?

    Likewise, doesn't mean I can justify him being above Big George though.

    Yeah, fair enough. I don't think it would do any harm to leave a few out though. :good

    I like the one point gap between Holmes and Lewis. I find it hard decide which one to rank higher.

    Silly ommision leaving out the Rock- not sure where he belongs though. Perhaps after Lewis and Foreman.
