See what you did-you made up something I posted and are arguing that instead of my point.
I never posted the KO losses should have "greater precedence over a boxer's accomplishments in a span of a decade." I said they had to be factored in. Your whole record counts, not just the time you were at the top. Right?
IMO those losses knock him down from A to B+. It's not like I said he sucked or wasn't a HOF'er.
The volume of quality fighters makes those eras better. i think its safe to say Ali/Frazier/Foreman/Norton/Shavers/Patterson/Liston and Tyson/Holyfield/Lewis/Bowe/ were better tham the Wlad era.
