Actually, judging by the film, I think their legs are a little far apart at the time Ali goes down for Wepner to be standing on his foot. It looks...
As in, all on the same night?
Few elite fighters?!?!?!? Let's see, here... from the early 1940s all the way through the early '60s, he fought the following future Hall-of-Fame...
I voted 7. Although Moore hadn't reached his best yet when they fought, Charles did beat him all three times, so he has to be given the edge...
Look, it's just plain not reasonably debatable that Walcott wasn't in his prime when he fought Simon. At that point in his career, Walcott was not...

I would note the biggest cluster of votes is in the 3-5 range.
Liston was only 6'1" or so, but he had extremely long arms proportionate to his height(watch him jabbing in the Machen fight, for example- his...

I went with four. I could really see anywhere from about 2 to 6, though- there are a number of guys in there who I think he could pretty much go...
