That looks like it was put together by casuals who jut voted in the most famous fighters.

How on Earth is Armstrong behind Marciano and Dempsey? Why are Marciano and Dempsey even in the top 20? What’s Tyson doing here? Ali and Louis being above SRR and Armstrong? No Greb and Langford?

No Ezzard Charles
And I could go on...

sorry but that list is just wrong

My biggest issues with the list are Tyson & Holyfield being on it (then you add in Mike's above Holyfield and Lennox isn't even on it ), Marciano & Dempsey being in the top 10 (don't think I'd include either if lighter weight classes got more consideration), & the last 2 names on the fan poll. Frazier being rated top 5 p4p ever by fans makes me think they only view boxing through the scope of Ali's career.

I know people argue that p4p lists were made for guys like SRR & Armstrong but I wouldn't be mad if Ali & Louis were rated above them (I put Ali & SRR above the Armstrong & Louis though).
