I'm looking at the records and despite Lewis being upsetted by Rahman that year in 2001, he was still considered the best. It was widely regarded as a 'freak upset' and it was. After Lennox left, Vitali took over, then Wladimir.
So when was the last time an American was considered the best?
Ring got Holyfield ranked #1 in 1997, that's some bull**** and obvious lie. Holyfield in 1997 went life and death with Vaughn, Lewis knocked out a Prime Golota (who destroyed Bowe) in 30 seconds. Lewis was also 4 times as active.
I say back in 1996, right after Holyfield beat Tyson
