People like Chuvalo Ellis and Bonavena may have been able to get in there but most of their best wins were in the 60s
All in all little disappointed with the quality after 7.

I'm not sure I see the case for having Norton ahead of Holmes.

 

There is no case.

 

Because Quarry was better. Beat better fighters more consistently. Think they were extremely close in talent but Quarry faced better and beat better. Norton has that one magical win but the rest is pretty light even the Quarry win was his last real fight really.
