    Depending on how you look at it, such as the Klitschko's are huge compared to the old fighters such as Marciano and Dempsey, which gives a vital advantage not to mention they are far better skilled. If we are talking accomplishments etc.., then you could argue for Marciano even though he was in one of the weakest Heavyweight era's of all-time.

    The top names would be:

    Jack Dempsey
    Vitali Klitschko
    Wlad Klitschko
    Rocky Marciano
    Jim Jeffries
    James Corbett
    Max Schmeling
    Max Baer

      I like the Klitschko's, but I don't see them as being more skilled. They fight less often, less rounds and throw far fewer punches. Granted, they dwarf those named on your list, but if we could magicly make them all the same dimensions, they quite possibly wouldn't be so highly thought of by some.

      You can add Jerry Quarry to that list, and to a lesser degree George Chuvalo, Gerry Cooney and Gerry Coetzee.
