Ha Ha. Cheers mate

The order of the fighters concerns me greatly. I'd like a greater definition of why that fighter is in the position he is rather than just biographical information.

The biographies are good reads and it's a good tool when observing the careers and attributes of older fighters.

I supose the real purpose of these lists is to provide a framework for the biographies. Its an impossible task, ranking fighters.

Example, who would you rank as the better puncher Naseem, or Lennox Lewis?

Or indeed ranking sexual encounters.

Who was better, that Brazilian waitress you had a fling with in 2007? or Mr Peters, your old Scout Master?
