Was Jimmy Wilde the greatest fighter of his time? the greatest fighter pound per pound of his generation?
Was he the best fighter of the 1910-20s era?

It's pretty hard to rank him above those guys.
I do not think so....Jimmy Wilde between 1910 to 1920 was the best fighter pound per pound of his time.
