    Not overall, legacy or historical standing.
    Only use people as they actually existed in real time and not some fantasy hybrid.

    Only use those with at least 3 yrs at the top of their game as to rule out the 1 night wonders.

    Purely on H2H

    Ali
    Lewis
    Louis
    Liston
    Holmes

    Let's open it up and make it any weight class you want.
    Just make it purely as requested.

    Okay, I'll do a few but they'll just be in rough orders and I won't use anyone with no footage. Just to be clear, I'm using guys who were at the top for more than three years throught their career, not just at that particular weight (ala Jones at 160, or Duran at 147).

    By got his ass handed to him, I take it you mean he lost two close decisions? Whilst weight drained? And Harada is on the BW list, he's third. Read properly.

    Walcott shouldn't even be above Charles, let alone Holmes.
