    are you off your rocker... now you class 6 foot 3 Douglas as "superheavy"?

    yet you've gone out your way many times to stress it starts with 6 foot 5 so as to include your beloved. K bros.

    BUT NOW "superheavy" shifts down to suit the current Mentaldoza agenda

    Conor McGregor deserves a mention, too. I know he isn't a HW, but he CAN be if he tries.

    McDoughnut was a killer. Only man to outpoint Tyson Fury, even though he was shamelessly robbed. Wrecked Nigerian wrecking ball Larry O with his big man skills! Took on the fearsome Price and paid the price. Eh, can't win em all. But what a career, and what a fighter!

    H2H he was pretty damned good. Looked like a slob with zero skills, but his timing and punch selection were first class. I'd give him a chance against most in the top ten were it not for his gigantic Roman hooter constantly threatening to end his night.

    Very good trainer as well. Coached the amateur killer Roberto Camarelle to a number of Olympic finals and a gold.

    Boston Tom McMustache fought largely at light heavy, but ventured into the heavyweight scene a few times with great success.

    Jeepers! How can anyone have forgotten McMustache? It fact most of Tom's opponents would be more than eligible for a top ten spot, Irish Tex Goldstein, Fighting Battler, Soldier Fireman Jim etc.

    Are you deliberately leaving out Tex Montana, The Arizona Kid? (The original one from North Dakota, not the guy from Delaware who misappropriated his name.)

    Marciano and Dempsey are the best two. I'd probably go with Marciano over Dempsey although the difference is very slight
