    These poll results were depressing.

    Pea, JCC/Roy should be bringing up the front.

    Old Hopkins (from 2006-2007) vs Young Holyfield (from 1986-87) at a catchweight of 180-185lbs over 12 rounds.

    Who wins & how?

    Hard to compare. I think Chavez did better and more dominant against average fighters and Pernell did better against top fighters. So I would pick Pernell.

    if it's greatest talent then i would pick RJJ over anyone that ever laced them up, but if it's resume then i pick Whitaker. H2H i also pick RJJ over anyone.

    Tough list, but Pea should clearly be above the rest and DLH at the bottom IMO. Everyone else almost meshes.

    Whitaker

    Chavez
    Pac
    RJJ
    BHop
    Floyd
    Lewis
    Holyfield

    DLH

    The biggest surprise of this poll is the wide disparity between the jones and bhop votes, and this is coming from a jones fan
