Video: Top 20 Heavyweights since 1924

Tyson Fury GOAT.

All right. Now I can watch the video.

Also, before getting to the results, I'm expecting Wlad to do well.

 

Gene Tunney should be in the list over Ezzard Charles.

 

I don't understand what "T3" is. I know you mentioned it has something to do with top 3 rankings, but I don't get it.

 

Thanks for making and posting the video. It's great.

Nice selection of pictures too.

Although this is only up to 2004 - I've always liked this take on things ...

I like the thinking behind this; to take a scientific approach in an attempt to extract personal opinion, and there will be winners and losers when rankings are based on a system. It's a strong list though. But the most startling revelation of all is Wlad's hair at the beginning...

 

great video rummy!

 

Yup, looking forward to the lower weight classes. CW and SMW will be interesting because of the smaller sample survey...

 

Well done Rummy!!!

Pro job!

 

Good stuff Rummy, based on your criteria there's no doubt Wlad is going to rank pretty high, unbeaten and on top for 11 years.

 

Longevity is a much overlooked factor on here by some...

 

George Foreman the greatest ever by any standards at #14 ???

 

I think history will be kind to Wlad. There is no case for him to be left out of top 10. A case can be made for top 5 even.
Let's say Holmes, I thought Wlad was as dominant as Holmes during his peak and most have Holmes in the top 4.

 

Using the system Rummy employed, then yes he's 14th. This kind of approach is always meant to be food for thought and designed to extract opinion from rankings. That will always throw up anomalies...

 

see above... lol
