Layne apparently was a desultory trainer, which made him an in and out performer. On the other hand his best was very good. In the Ring report...
Well, for total career, of course it is Louis. When (and if I get around to it) I do the 1936 to 1945 decade Louis will be the #1 by a mile. And...
Joey Maxim doesn't even make the top 25? Is he really that far behind Gibbons? for example.
No Lloyd Marshall??? I would certainly rate him ahead of Slattery. Mina is a good pick. I think Peralta might also warrant a position, but...

Ray and Moore can go either way, but I used as the "break the tie" factor beating the best. Ray's wins over Walcott & Charles gave him the edge...

Why should Suzie-Q get all the flak, so I will attempt my top 15 for the decade previous to the one he did, and let folks take shots at it. Up...
We are back to an argument that boils down to mediocre modern guys, because they are so big, are better scalps than really talented fellows from...
Also, besides the points you just made, you lose the last round which you obviously won rather decisively on all scorecards if anyone would keep a...
He did beat Rex Layne.
Well, Matthews was not an IBC fighter and so posed a threat to their monopoly control. Those who were tied to the IBC, fighters and managers, and...
This caused me to look up something just for info. There were 7 heavyweight championship fights in the 20th century in which a white fighter...
