    I like Gavalin, Burley in these films didn't look as pretty offensively or Defensively

    He's in with a much bigger opponent, and winning easilly. We only have one fight of his fights, and it's in crappy quality.

    Smith was no bum either. A lot of losses, but he fought tons of quality opponents.
    Ezzard Charles twice
    Archie Moore 4 times, drawing with him once
    He KOed Lloyd Marshall
    Fought Jack Chase 3 times, winning 2
    3 fights with Aaron Wade
    2 fights with Charley Burley
    3 fights with Bert Lytell (one a NC for some reason)
    Jimmy Bivins
    Beat Harold Johnson

    I know, but he doesn't look as good as Gavalin in it hence my pick.
