    A "good" list? Who's to say.

    It's certainly not a bad list.
    All the names on there are true all-time greats by any reckoning.

    Yes it is probably a very good list. Its obvious you haven't just copy and pasted Stonehands list like everybody else does.

    The cookie cutter list usually has Duran at #5, Greb at #1, Charles at #4

    I think my own list overall contains vastly greater talent who would whoop more ass, but thats just my way of making lists

    Stonehand's list is actually rather unique.

    It has Burley at #10 and no Langford or Fitzsimmons. In these three things he differs from most of the forum.

    No. He doesn't have Ali on there though, something else that makes it different form most ESB lists.
