I get this point, but I feel like it is a bit unfair. Modern guys at the top level are peaking physically for only a couple of fights a year....
I find his placement on there interesting. In some ways him and Ezzard Charles have some things in common. Both around a ten year prime, followed...

For pure charisma, Chisora is a good mention for modern fighters.
