    smitty, I noticed on Bob Fitzsimmons you put that he beat John L. Sullivan. That didn't happen, unless you know something that I don't.

    You correct, my mistake an error reading too fast I guess. I meant to say he beat the man (Corbett) who indeed beat Sullivan.

    Fitz dominance was impressive and his resume is exceptional in my book though some seem to find holes in it.

    No arguments, though having 2 HW (even though their two of the most dominate and prominent figures in the sports history) over the likes of Langford, Greb, and Charles isn't viable IMO.

    Oh, ok. Either way, Fitzsimmons was definitely one of the great ones.
