I picked (up to) three men from each decade that held a belt during that decade.
I couldn't always pick three in each decade (e.g. Louis had it practically the whole decade of the 40's!).
Which decade had the best champs?
Teen's
Willard/Johnson (only two champs essentially)
20's:
Dempsey/Tunney (only two champs)
30's
Schmeling/Baer/Louis
40's
Louis (only 1 champ essentially)
50's
Walcott/Marciano/Patterson
60's
Patterson/Liston/Clay-Ali
70's
Frazier/Foreman/Ali
80's
Holmes/a shitload of temp champs/Tyson
90's
Holyfield/Bowe/Lewis
00's
Lewis/The Klitschko's
I choose:
The 70's--all are legends and the whole decade was filled with great challengers. There was always a great champ--except when Leon was champ...
