          Basillio and Lamotta were more entertaining than great. Both very good fighters that were overrated for beating SRR. **** Tiger is ranked way too high. Didn't Griffith beat him? I'm pretty sure he did, and he's ranked higher?

          I've probably only seen 70% of that list fight though. So it's hard to judge fully.

          Bernard Hopkins even in 2002 was greater than Monzon imo.

              Dempsey & Pryor definitely too high. Hearns too low.

              Hearns sometimes gets way too much flack for his losses. Yeah he lost to ATGs like Leonard and Hagler, and also to Barkley. He also beat fighters like Cuevas, Benitez, Duran, and Hill.

                Tito Trinidad way too high. No way he's above Lennox and Hearns.

                It's old though, so I forgive.
