    Not just for you, you just happen to be the last one to write it. Based on what is Sullivan greater than Jeffries. Not arguing, I feel like I have the least grasp on Sullivan and how to rate him...so for you or others why is Sullivan higher than Jeffries...is it close? What separates them

    It's extremely close. Sullivan edges it out due to superior dominance and longevity for me. I will admit that Jeffries had the better competition, but his most quality opposition, Fitzsimmons, was 39 & 40 when the fights with Jeffries happened (albeit still a dangerous man). Not to mention that Jeffries outweighed him by 50-60lbs
