Thanks for that. In order to make the list fair to all the participants I decided to leave out the category of ability. I agree with Pea that...
I haven't checked it out yet but I will do so later tonight. Look forward to it. I'd say Gavilan's one of the best fighters to watch on film no...
Just criticizing my own list, I find the following fighters rankings somewhat hard to swallow for how high they are: 12. Gene Tunney 33. Duilio...
:lol: Fair enough. For what it's worth, I would say just looking at my ranking that I have underrated William's resume a bit and he could...
Is that a criteria thing or a misapplication of the criteria? I.e. have I underrated Williams in one of the categories compared to the others I...
Koki Kameda of course :good
How would you alter it to make it fairer?

Freddie Pendleton and Alfredo Layne for Pea. But yeah, the 'context' is what swings it Whitaker's way for me, becuase it involves the names...
Whitaker going up against a beastly Julio Cesar Vasquez is a way more daunting task imo than facing 'the Quiet Man' with a Jones-friendly ref....
Probably a bit of bias on my part Mante, though I do think he clearly won the first Griffith fight and the second one could have gone either way....
