          Tony Z beat enough first class fighters and had enough exciting wars to be considered that.

            Possibly, don't have alist so can't say for sure..

            If he didn't go to war and actually fought the best opponents that were available to him at 1 time or another e.g Ezzard Charles, Charley Burley, Eddie Booker, Holman Williams, Jake LaMotta and a number of others, so many great fights which could of been made for him and all of them deserved a shot at his title which was held out of distance.

              Is this a trick question ? must be, I've never heard a bad word about Zale. He's in my Top 10 Body Punchers, In my Top 10 for Pure Toughness. I still can't understand how Ray ROBINSON and Zale never fought, and he's a Top 10 Middleweight, All Time Great for sure. P4P probably somewhere between 9o and 50 All Time. NOTE, I don't like to rate many Un-Filmed Champs, too many hard questions to be sure for your own sake, Greb makes any list but where to put him is just a massive stretch of the imagination for me as I've seen footage of most greats since the Papke's and Ketchel's time. Greb was very tough, sounds a bit like Tony. One more thing, Zale's 3 wars against Rocky G. are proof positive to Tony Zale and Greatness, probably 3 of the best 10 fights EVER EVER.
