Sorry about starting this topic elsewhere. Here are mine
1.Probert- no brainer
2.Brown- a 6'5 lefty
3.Grimson- great career value
4.Crowder- unbeatable for a month
5.Kocur- best punch ever
6.Gaetz- would have been King after Probert..
7.McSorley-best career value
8.Kordic- top 5 every year he played
9.Wilson- never really got ass kicked
10.Gillies- Overrated, but Cherry has him 1
Honorable mention-
11.Berube- great career overall (most
honorable too)
12.Fotiu- got whipped by Nystrom once so..
13.Nilan- changed the way guys fight
14.Richter-another 6'5" lefty (did you ever see what he did to Kocur?)
15.Semenko-see what he did to DeLorme??

I think Gillies was very overrated. He had such trouble with O'Reilly who was a guy who literally couldnt throw a punch right. I saw Bridgeman use O'Reilly's face like a speedbag once. Cochrane was scary too but I want to remind all of you that he rarely tangled with
the real Heavyweights. I also disagree that he beat Nystrom twice. I had BobbyNy winning the first one. Cochrane was the original "lose the Jersey" guy which gave him what I consider to be an unfair advantage over his fully clothed opponents-NO HONOR! For the most part I think all of your picks are great- most of you really know your ****.

Oh sorry, here it is

1. Odjick
2. Crowder
3. Hunter
4. Bonvie
5. Antoski
6. Probert
7. Vukota
8. Brown
9. Williams
10. Guerin

I WOULD make a realistic top 10 but I have not been a fan long enough to make a good one. I have not seen some of the guys mentioned in action, I have only seen guys from the 90's +. Therefore, if I made a list, it would reflect from the early 90's up until today. I'm only 22 so I missed out on a lot of classic action...

That's why you have to get some old fight tapes from the '70's & '80's.

I'm confused Odjick29 . . . is that your list? (you mentioned that you would make a "realistic" one if you could, which implies that the one you provided was NOT realistic) . . .

Aside from a few controversial guys (Guerin in particular), there are quite a few legitimate Top 10 all-timers on your list (and a couple guys that arguments could be made for) - hell, even your namesake has an argument [)] . . .

At any rate, I don't want to log it in if you didn't intend it to be "realistic"; I for one didn't think it was necessarily ill-informed by any means, so if you want me to log it in, let me know . . .

Big24, just curious about your take on the Nystrom/Cochrane fights. Their first fight was a non-televised preseason game on Long Island and their second fight is the one on tape that most have seen. Which one did you think Nystrom won?
