The first three are pretty much always the same, Max Schmeling, Floyd Patterson and Roberto Duran. Then it's changing a lot, currently Naseem...
So, McBride ranks above Tyson?
I see, ad hominems. Well, enjoy the rest of the thread then.
Vitali lost to an old, out of shape, unmotivated champ. If he would be as good as you think he would have won. You wrote losses do not get taken...
How often did Vitali fight per year? How often Wlad? You'll gonna see there's no real difference. Just that Wlad stayed at the top for longer and...

Pre-60s. So, Clay is out. Mythical Liston maybe. Real Liston, probably not. IMO Louis is the best bet but even then I would not bet on him....
