    I think Holy is being underrated here and Holmes is def top-4. I'd set LL to top position.

    The "HOF legends" louis lost to were 184lb and 192lb. This list isnt about who was the greatest for their time, but who would come out out top if they fought in their primes. Dempsey and marciano didnt go up against opponents the size and strength of those wlad and lewis lost to.
    In the eras of dempsey and marciano the heavyweights were smaller than todays cruiserweights, so its quite a leap to suggest they could beat 6'5" and bigger 240lb boxers. If they were around today they wouldnt even be competing at heavyweight let alone be champions of the division
