Ezzard Charles last? He's arguably got the best resume on that list.

Yeah. But Jab, you have to take more in consideration than just soley the resume of wins, if that was the case Jimmy Bivins was rank higher than the likes of Joe Louis, Julio Cesar Chavez, Marvin Hagler, Eder Jofe etc, due to having a better resume of wins than them. But he dosen't.

You also have to take in consideration alot of other things such as skills, consitence, losses etc when rating a fighter.

And am not saying Charles shound't be higher, but I think you can make a argument for the other 4 being better.......In my opinion.

This one. Difficult choices though, and I might change my mind tomorrow, and the day after that, and the day after that, but I think this is usually what I would go for. The first three you could swap around as you please on any given day but I think those three rate higher than Pea and Rock with some certainty, and Pea higher than the Rock with some certainty.

I think Rock comes in last, no matter how you look at it, Whitaker in fourth and then you could make very good arguments for the next three all to be first, second or third without it being anything close to wrong.
