Impressive!!!! An easier one: James J Corbett could beat Lennox Lewis because? (I had to use 17 other names to get there)
At work sometimes when I am bored Igo on Boxrec and try to make links in the shortest chain e.g Pick a Klitschko and see how low you can get in a chain on the basis the lighter guy must beat the bigger guy
That is IMO the wrong way to do it; my list went: Corbett beat Kid McCoy who beat Joe Choynski who beat Jack Johnson who beat Jim Flynn who beat Jack Dempsey who beat Jack Sharkey who beat Max Schmeling who beat Joe Louis who beat Jersey Joe who beat Ezzard Charles who beat Joey Maxim who beat Floyd Patterson who beat Henry Cooper who beat Jack Bodell who beat Joe Bugner who beat Bonecrusher who beat Bruno who beat McCall who beat Lennox I always find it easier to start in the past, as sooner or later you tend to bump into a name, you can get a pattern off of.
:good Good work. I tried doing it from Corbett first but got stuck so decided to work backwards. Got into an even bigger muddle.
