    Probably from the 30's on? You just have to make some adjustments and put some guys into what their modern weight class would be. You see people scoff at the thought of Marciano fighting Lewis; those same people would NOT scoff at the thought of him against Bivol. The issue isn't Marciano himself, it's just that in the modern world, he's a light heavy.
