    I think that of the list you quoted, Huck is the best challenger by a mile; at the time and with retrospect... which is not exactly a very good thing.

    Wawryzk has beat everyone they put infront of him yet still he gets no credit, I just feel like he's never going to get his just dues.

    It's about who they put in front of him, and how he fared against them.
    There have been many guys that build a 30+ record with a 90+% KO ratio that crumbled against the first real opponent they faced.

    This makes me chuckle.

    Joie Louis's "bum of the month club" were by and large the best opponents available. They were the Povetkin's, Haye's and Pulevs of the era. In all he fought 31 opponents who were curently ranked inside the top 10.

    Rocky Marciano only defended his title against one fighter who was not currently ranked #1 by Ring Magazine.

    Nobody today even seems to want to shoot at these guys records.

    Wawryzk was knocked down by a 1-14 fighter who has a 0% KO ratio.
