    alot of people will bring up murderer's row and its hard to argue as most fighters worthy of world championship status have reached it, at least after the fifties

    but these days matthew macklin is looking good for it

    gotta love chuvalo too

    Some stupid **** has the balls to mention David Tua in this thread.. without mentioning Sam Langford.

    **** that ****. Tua sucked, still sucks, and was always slow as **** and highly overrated due to his KO of Ruiz. Wins over Rahman, Ruiz, and Fres Oquendo do not make you an elite HW.

    Tua. He beat so many world champs it's ridiculous. And he was more of a puncher than Mike Tyson. Tua had power from round 1-12. Mike was more of a 5 round KO artist usually.
    Tua also had a great chin but he couldn't keep it together. His weight was erratic and he missed his shot against Lewis. He was supposed to KO china chin but he let that fist off the hook.

    Burley and Langford are great choices. In modern times, Herol Graham deserves a shout.
