    Résumé of wins the first list is miles better Charles and Moore have two of the greatest résumé in the history of boxing not to mention Williams, Burley, Marshall and Booker all have big wins. In head to head it’s closer depending on how you match them up.

    If its all black fighters of the era add Robinson and Galivan to the 40s crew

    And add Nunn, Trinidad and Barkley to the 90s crew. Whos Tim Watson? Do you mean Micheal Watson who was disabled by Eubanks?

    I think the 90s crew as a whole is on par if not better than the 40s crew, its a close call

    You also want to add Herol Bomber Graham to the 90s ROW as he was outstanding, avoided and very unlucky to never be a champ
