 Who was the greatest team in basketball history or baseball history or football history? Well, we can't get them together and play each other because those guys have died now from some of these old greats. Who was the greatest boxer? Well, we can't get some of the ones that's old or died to box some of the ones today to see who's better. The best we can do is how good did they handle their opponents in their day? And the best you can do is to handle the opponents of your day.
