Some pretty unique views there: 29. Chad Dawson With any active boxer, there is always a good chance that they may not be able to fulfill their promise, but Dawson is doing just OK right now. In a 28-bout unbeaten career, the 26-year-old has beaten Antonio Tarver (twice), Glen Johnson, Tomasz Adamek and Eric Harding, as well as having held the WBC and IBF titles. He has so far lacked the punch to be a big box-office star, but with most of the recent top light-heavyweights in their late thirties, Dawson has time on his side to win over the crowds. 30. Maxie Rosenbloom Long before Joe Calzaghe was accused of not throwing his punches correctly, there was "Slapsi Maxie", light-heavyweight champion of the world in the early 1930s, but someone who was a big success in his later career as an actor and TV personality in America. Rosenbloom was nowhere near the class of Calzaghe, but he built his success on speed and movement at the expense of power. He won the title by beating Jimmy Slattery in 1930, and while he was stripped of the NBA version for a while, he held the New York version until losing the title to Bob Olin in 1934. But he has some cracking names on his record, he won and lost against John Henry Lewis and Mickey Walker, whom he successfully defended his title against. He also fought James J Braddock in 1931, the bout only lasting two rounds when the pair were accused arranging a fixed fight. They were made to give their purses to charity. Rosenbloom had plenty of make-believe fights in later life when he made a career as an actor, often playing comedy roles and a clumsy big guy.
That says all you need to know about these guys right there. No reason to ever read another word from them again.
I dont think the lists that bad, especially for a main stream paper, Langfords shockingly low but in fairness he didnt exactly campaign in the division, Greb's low too, but Ive seen plenty worse
