www.cyberboxingzone.com/boxing/sully.htmWould John L Sullivan be considered a great fighter if he had fought against the likes of Eddie Machen, Clevleand Williams, Zora Folley, Joe Frazier, Jerry Quarry, Sonny Liston, Rocky Marciano and Archie Moore? My thought is that any of the men I had mentioned would have destroyed if not killed Sullivan in a match to the finish as they fought when Sullivan fought. Further thought, the term 'great' is always specific to the time in which it is used and a great from one era would not necessarily be great in another era of the same sport. The link is to an article on Sullivan.
