          No real criteria... just a quick list... but I think in their prime:

          1) Muhammad Ali beats everyone
          2) Jack Johnson beats everyone else
          3) George Foreman beats everyone else
          4) Riddick Bowe beats everyone else
          5) Evander Holyfield beats everyone else
          6) Larry Holmes beats everyone else
          7) Lennox Lewis beats everyone else
          8) Joe Louis beats everyone else
          9) Joe Frazier beats everyone else
          10) Mike Tyson beats everyone else

          • H2H:

            1. Muhammad Ali (Jockin on 60s Ali's physical stature)
            2. George Foreman
            3. Joe Louis
            4. Mike Tyson
            5. Vitali Klitschko
            6. Joe Fraizer
            7. Ezzard Charles
            8. Rocky Marciano
            9. Lennox Lewis
            10. Evander Holyfield

            Joe Louis and Mike Tyson could be interchanged.

              Joe Louis and Mike Tyson could be interchanged.

              Head to head I'd drop Marciano and Charles and put in Liston and Wlad.

                Louis doesn't have the skill/talent of Marciano, Lewis, Tyson, Vitali, or Liston?!

                  I agree, that's a rather odd assessment.

                    Agree with Liston actually, but Wlad idno.. maybe I just can't face having two of the Klits on the list.

                    Charles is more sugar.
