    If they shine like demi-gods they are ATGs.

    In my view, the number of genuine heavyweight greats isn’t that many - 15 at a push. But the division does boast two fighters who are conceivably top 10 p4p all time so at the very top end it’s impressive… but it’s a weight class of two indisputable greats followed by a group of greats who I could rank, if not quite interchangeably, then pretty close together.

    Whats the difference if any between Great and All Time Great?

    It's an unanswerable question anyway ,everyone has their own ideas on what constitutes greatness.
