    My recollection too. II was an incredibly dynamic, back and forth affair. I was a little anti-climatic but maybe I'm blurring the fights. They're all truly great.

    :think

    I'm going to open a new one at the same time I close an old one.

    So in a few days I will gear it up. Debating whether, once the new one is produced, I should run them every 2, 3, or 4 weeks. Will decide at the time I release the next one.

    I know it's slowed down, but I still want to give people a little time who may not have seen it (which has me thinking a Sticky may not be a bad idea).

    Yes, eventually, but not any time soon. I was considering what MR BUTT said. We did the original 8 + P4P.

    I've always contemplated getting the other 9 divisions in there at some point.

    As for doing the All-Time, I think that's one I would only revisit every 10 years or so. But I would like to do a large variety of series (beyond the current one), or even individual stand-alone surveys.

    Generally, I think the collective knowledge of the Classic Section participants has rendered interesting results, that are also pretty solid in terms of representing a nice guideline or reference.

    If anyone has any idea on future surveys I would definitely be interested in hearing them.

    I've been thinking of everything from Best Fighter by Decade, to Best Fight Venue, Most Historically Significant Fights, something involving trainers, something involving television commentators, and more. I personally think there is a lot of potential with these type of surveys, and I personally find them both educational and entertaining.



    Thanks man!

    Thanks for the time and effort...I agree w/ your earlier post that it looks like a solid list....even the 2nd 10 w/ maybe 1-2 pesronal exceptions would even be a solid list.
