Lyle always spoke very highly of Frazier as a fighter after they worked together. Joe was like Dempsey in that he couldn't take it easy in sparring.
Foreman sort of carried it..Larry was alright. It was sad to see the bad shape Ken Norton was in though his mind was still sharp. Ali was still...
The Great White Hype? Irish Terry Conklin had a mean right hand.
Griffith is the first name that jumps out that should be included. McClarnin is also a good shout. Based on both accomplishments, longevity...

Duran/Chavez for me.
There's an old film of Sulluvan they showed on HBO's legendary heavyweights of old man Sullivan squaring off with another fighter and firing...
