We all (well almost all) accept that heavyweight boxing has moved on from 1898 but... Has there been any top ten better than that of that year? Champion Fitzsimmons 2. Jeffries 3. Sharkey 4. Maher 5. Corbett 6. McCoy 7. Ruhlin 8. Childs 9. Armstrong 10. Choynski I mean better in terms of the fighters being at or near their peak and also the depth of the heavyweights as displayed in the contests between them.
