    I only have 4, maybe 5 names. That are certain. It's tough.

    Therefore according to the rules I'm enforcing against myself I won't be able to write them yet.

    Possibly. I'm seeing what might be most solid for all the names whirling around (that I shall not mention). For instance, I once did something ridiculous like having Liston as my #3 all-time heavyweight until I noted this was ludicrous.

    Thats a far harder way to do it than doing in your head. Too much cross-checking and research to just be able to "Boxrec" the records side and the rankings side doesn't really hold up well.

    Don't worry, I've done far worse than that ;-)

    With like, the core 20 odd fighters, you're taking the **** really trying to claim one is greater than the next anyway IMO. A lot of fighters out there with dense records I found, that wouldn't make my top 50. The greats armed with resumes with a lot of depth are a joy to find out about, but a killer to rank IMO. WHen you're up this high it's like 'has anyone else done something more astounding than that?!? Oh, my number five guy did. Oh, and **** no.3 has that win against....but my old no.1 had that undefeated run with one arm....'

    Know what I mean?

    You've bamboozled me as I have no idea which context you've taken my jokey comment into :lol:

    I had mythical brackets, that if you shout out a fighter I could tell you whereabouts he belonged.

    But the top 60-odd are all I have.

    Or in this thread 'the ten' (oh, which will invariably change in a few days, but as I cannot stress enough, no hon...blah blah blah)

    Yeah, but I literally had no single idea why I had Liston as my #3 heavyweight. I think I had a raging hard on for his jab, and in my head, this meant he was like...the p4p best heavyweight in the universe ever. It was strange. I've demoted him to a more realistic position.

    Just pointing out that "Boxrecing" a decent answer isn't really an option unless you have a few weeks on your hands.

    10 is pushing it for Liston for me, 11-13 on any given day in my HW rankings is fair IMO.

    This is of course, a tangent I'm ending now.
