Despite its derogatory nickname, most of the group were top-ten heavyweights and only gained the nickname due to the ease inwhich Louis dispatched them. Five were rated by The Ring as top-ten heavyweights in the year they fought Louis: Galento (overall #2 heavyweight in 1939), Bob Pastor (#3, 1939), Godoy (#3, 1940), Simon (#6, 1941) and Baer (#8, 1941); four others (Musto, Dorazio, Burman and Johnny Paycheck) were ranked in the top ten in a different year. John Henry Lewis was the Light HW Champ at the time and attempted to move up.
