    They wouldnt be the biggest or the best that Langford had fought and beat.

    and Langford did actualy beat the the big heavyweights he fought.

    Ahead of a prime Holyfield?

    Wills is the only person who really has a case among Langfords victims.

    Ahead of the version of Holyfield that toney fought?

    The world and his wife.

    I revised my opinion to say that he is indeed the greatest, this man would kick ANYBODY'S ASS TODAY, I don't care who he's fighting. He could do it all. He could box, he could slug, he had tremendous speed, tremendous power, excellent ring generalship, could take a punch, and was feared by EVERYONE. Dempsey, Willard, Johnson (after he became champ) etc, etc... NONE of these guys wanted a piece of him. And if he were around today, nobody would want anything to do with him. Best fighter ever.
