    Just seen his first fight against Chris Finnegan, masterful performance!
    Also thought he was very unlucky to not get the nod against Saad Muhammed in their first fight.

    Virgil Hill would have done very well against Tunney and Conn.

    Here is my top 10.

    Michael Spinks
    Ezzard Charles
    Archie Moore
    Gene Tunney
    Bob Foster
    Roy Jones Jr.
    Sam Langford
    Billy Conn
    Tommy Loughran
    Harry Greb
    Harold Johnson


    I could also have Greb higher though I'm not sure I see him as a LHW.

    By well, you mean last to the final bell and take a resounding defeat?

    Where is Henry Maske?! (yes, this is a joke.)
