    Duane bobick, ramone ranguello, and the immortal chuck wepner should be on the list.

    Honorable mentions to tex cobb and alfredo evangelista.

    Mike Gibbons ?
    Jack Dempsey ?
    Sam Langford - based on footage or results ?
    Tony Canzoneri rated above Carlos Monzon ?
    Dick Tiger above Bob Foster ?
    I think Gene Tunney is the most underrated of all boxers ever. He should be rated next to Ali and Joe Louis.

    He's on there. And deservedly high.

    Not when your best win is over a light heavyweight.

    On footage, of course. It's not like homeboy did anything special from lightweight to heavyweight.

    Canzoneri probably has more good (not great) wins in more divisions than anybody else in history.

    Dick Tiger. Middleweight. Light heavyweight. Brutal poetry. Cancer. **** you.

    No. And no. Couldn't outbox a 12-year-old Tommy Loughran. Lost his series to Greb. Beat one of the worst HW champs ever.

    He's still ****ing high, anyway.

    I have to disagree with this list. So many omissions I.E. Floyd Patterson, Mike Tyson, Ken Norton, Andre Ward just to name a few

    I don't think Ward is there yet. Norton belongs nowhere near this list.

    I have to say I am an unashamed Duran fan. i would defend him through thick and thin, even the " No Mas " return with Leonard, and the annihilation by Tommy, but I could NEVER EVER make a case for him being better than SRR.
