    I've had the same list for a few years now and the biggest criticisms come by the rankings of Lewis and Tyson. Lists like this are always subjective but Im comfortable with these rankings at the moment.

    When you try to make adjustments, for how great a fighter was during his
    slot in time, thats where the difficulty comes in.

    For instance was Jack Dempsey greater in the 1920's, than Rocky Marciano in
    the early 1950's.

    It can't be done.

    Lol, I mod the history section at Bscene so Im not familiar with all the players here.I like to come here and check things out as I've read some excellent opinions from a variety of posters in this section. Bujia seems ok, and Im willing to listen to any argument presented with reason and logic.

    So if she came up to you, dropped her panties and said "You can have me!", you're telling me you'd say "no"?
