I'd say so. Probably somewhere in the 70s-80s range. If he were to keep fighting & beat Stevenson, win a title against one of the top Cruiserweights & than win a Heavyweight title, he would definitely make the top 50.
Does Ward crack the top 100 of all time?? and if so where?

And you saying he might be outside top 20. For a so called boxing fan, you damn sure know too few fighters to not be bale to name at least 50 guys with better careers, better wins and better skills.
You are a joke.Comment

I havent done any big lists like this, but I would wager a guess that Ward wouldnt be higher rated than the top 10's of all the original 8 weight classes. Just a guess, but those divisions are crazy deep historically.
That gets you to number 80 already.
If he is in it will be right down in the 90's probably.
A list which many refer to (Mccrains) has these fighters in the 90-100 spots
100. George Foreman
99. Jung Koo Chan
98. Nicolino Locche
97. James Toney
96. Philadelphia Jack O'Brien
95. Jack 'Kid' Berg
94. Lennox Lewis
93. Pete Herman
92. Joe Frazier
91. Fritzie Zivic
90. Young Griffo
Im by no means an expert on all those fighters. But the ones I do know of really are great fighters. Gonna be tough for Ward imo. Obviously all P4P lists have an inherent subjectivity, but this is a well researched list by a knowledgeable boxing historian.Comment
