I voted Tyson just to get the predictable dumb vote out the way...but someone beat me to it.

Its Lewis, then Holmes.

Someone argue for Holyfield quickly!

Holyfield and Holmes.

LMAO.

I was checking the poll and I saw 'Wlad and Vitali' both go up by 1 vote.

Which clearly indicate some Klittard just picked both brothers...

That was me...

It's clearly Wlad though, mate.

Holmes is the clear no. 1. No.2 is between Tyson, Lummox and Wlad.

Are we talking resume or h2h? Off accomplishments it has to be Holmes and Lewis. But Holyfield does deserve a mention, primer bowe, Tyson when he was a huge under dog, splitting fights with a prime Moorer, wide wins over old man George and larry. If its h2h I think a prime Tyson and prime bowe would take some beating, the version of bowe that beat Holyfield was big strong had a good chin and could string together combos like a man half his size

I suppose this thread needs revisiting when wlad retires, because if he beats povetkin and a price/fury/wilder and retires champ a very valid argument could be made for him trumping everyone on this list
