    I agree. Do you think Don Cockell gets anywhere near the 9th against Foreman, Liston, Tyson, Wilder, etc?

    Of course. He slipped, fell, and landed his fist on their chins. Rudy. Overachiever. The whole shebang.

    If Guido Trane can make it to the 5th, sure.
    If Mark Young can make it to the 7th, why not?
    If Howard King can see the 7th, yes.
    If Bert Whitehurst goes the distance, you betcha.

    The meager lot either did not have tools, or no longer had the tools, to make the lil' feller pay.

    It's as if you'd expect Rocky to never lose a single fight to them, and score one of the highest KO percentages in history.

    Is that in order? While I appreciate Liston being number one (he's my favorite fighter :D) I'm surprised at the lack of Baer's inclusion. Great List nonetheless.

    Absolutely, they are in order of era.

    I'm not having Baer over any of my five.
