Ring expers run a best LHW's tournament since mid 30s

[ironfist05]

They have
1. Ezzard Charles
2. Archie Moore
3. RJJ
4. Bob Foster
5. Michael Spinks
6. Billy Conn
7. Sergey Kovalev
8 Matthew Saad Muhammad

little early for Kovalev IMO, though I don't think the results themselves are ridiculous (probably have Spinks and Foster above RJJ and I'd probably have Muhammad ahead of Kovalev, but not much else I'd change)

Matthew Saad Muhammad has more defenses than Qawi did, but considering Qawi stopped him twice and was, as I see it, clearly the better LHW, I'd rate Qawi ahead of him. Both belong ahead of Kovalev for the time being. Michaelczewski probably belongs ahead of Kovalev for the time being, as well.

It's more fun when they throw the best current fighter into these tournaments because it puts everything into a modern perspective.
