Does anyone have the late great boxing historian Mike Paul's list for #1 rated fighters?

I had found it on the internet and printed it a few years ago and can't find it.

It had Joe Louis as being rated at #1 for 96 months, etc.


Of course my main interest was that George Gardner was on the list, being rated as #1 for about a month, along with Jack Root and a few others.


Does anyone know of this list or the references?

I have it somewhere, what details do you want to know

What are Mike Paul's references to the #1 rated fighters?

George Gardner was probably the #1 pound for pound fighter from July 4th, 1903 to November 25th, 1903 during his reign as the Light Heavyweight Champion of the World.

I believe the World Heavyweight Title was vacant at that time.
