Europe got a little distracted by an incident in 1914. His claim died when he got stopped by Fulton. Its easier to trace an NSC lineage for him....
Yeah there are 1000s of HWs across time could have become world champion in the same circumstances. I don't really think thats true in any other case.

Stiverne. Breazeale belongs nowhere near this conversation. If David Allen gets a title shot he'll be the answer by quite a bit. Radchenkos...

While Blackburne learned chess during the Civil War he remained a top 10 player for 40 years and a top 20 player for 50. So he did prove himself...
This is called being a prodigy. This is typically associated with being younger when you absorb information faster but it makes sense a limited...
Spinks beat Holmes but got his shot just off LHW feats. The group you can rank over him are those you'd think could beat Holmes in 1985 and 1986...
