    Had I a top 10 then Arguello, Hearns, and Holyfield would be hot on the heels on the 5 listed above. Great list.

    #1 Joe Gans

    Greb
    Fitzsimmons
    Benny Leonard
    Tommy Loughran
    Archie Moore
    Joe Louis
    Dempsey (unpopular here - and I will admit his career is exceedingly frustrating)
    Joe Frazier
    Buchanan
    Arguello
    Young

    These are/were favorites, mind you. Feels odd making a list of anything that doesn't include SRR, Ali, and Duran. Holmes, SRL, etc
