Zale and Cerdan are two greats loved by previous generations who seem to get scored a little lower these days.

Cerdan's career was tragically cut short of course. He was held in high esteem during his day.

Zale had the great fights with Graziano. He was highly thought of back in his day.

Yeah, they were both great fighters. They belong in the conversation with guys like LaMotta, Tiger, Fullmer, Giardello, Benvenuti, Griffith, etc. So many really good ones in the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s.
