    I noticed you had no Carlos Zarate. I think there has to be an inclusion of Zarate somewhere.

    A unique view point, no doubt.

    It is said that if you give a thousand monkeys a thousand years, they will give you the definitive list of the finest 25 fighters of 1970 to 2002.

    Rooster that is 10 years work, tops!;)

    Comments: Braxton hadn't really accomplished much other than take a fading, at the end of his prime Saad Muhammud. Bill brought up Pryor who I forgot about so Dwight was squeezed out.
