I would say late 80's and however long into the 90's you are referring to.

As long as I've been alive, it's no doubt the 80s.

I just wish that I could have lived back when Rocky Marciano fought, plus Joe Louis, Ali, Frazier, etc

1920's is the best era.

Then the 1950's.

For heavyweights, the period of the late 60's/early 70's with Ali, Frazier, Norton, Foreman, etc. is arguably the best.

Easily the mid 40s.

Sugar Ray Robinson
Joe Louis
Ezzard Charles
Archie Moore
Willie Pep
Holman Williams
Charley Burley
Billy Conn
Jake LaMotta

That's the GOAT boxer, arguably the GOAT heavyweight and the GOAT defensive fighter all in the primes of their career.
