The one glaring omission is Harry Greb, arguably the greatest P4P ever. Whilst his world title success came in the twenties, between 1916-20 had numerous successes against top contenders between middle and LHW eg Levinsky, Dillon, Gibbons, Smith.

Greb's 1919 alone shits all over Darcy's entire career. Darcy had 50 fights in his career. In 1919 alone Greb almost that many and beat top contenders in three divisions, HOFers, and future and former champions. Greb could have his entire career except for 1919 thrown out the window and hed remembered on at least the same footing as Darcy if not better.
