    Yeah...If the entire heavyweight elite of Tyson's era consisted of bums, where exactly can you go from there? What does that make the journeymen of that era? What are the club fighters, or worse, the guys who are basically paid to lose? You've already abandoned any ability to rank these guys in order if you start with the nuclear option on Ring's top ranked guys.
