    Conteh, held is own in the best ever era (certainly 1 of the top 2 eras) of the light heavyweight division.

    Conteh fought '' back in the day '' so of course he is better.

    Well done mate for getting the sarcasm, I don't need to watch any Conteh because him fighting '' back in the day '' tells me all I need to know hahahaha.

    That list is garbage mate. Calzaghe too high, Hatton too high, McGuigan too high (as always!!)......and thats ignoring the fighters they should have had on the list like Driscoll, Wilde, Moran, Kid Lewis, Lynch, Fitzsimmons etc...
