Greatest small heavywieghts of all time

[sterling]

Who are the greatest small heavywieghts of all time? wieght and hieght
i personally think evander holyfield because he came up 2 wieght classes and always fought like he was bigger then the person in front of him when he was always out wieghed and fighting taller guys in a brutal style.
Mike tyson would be my next choice but since he lost twice to evander i would have to go with the real deal.
Also i dont believe people think evander was 6ft 2 he was just about mike tysons hieght imo.
Also i put james toney up there because of his ability not to get knocked the **** out when hes only 5ft10 plus hes gt a gd chin and power to come up from super middle without losing it.

You can't edit a poll, but a mod could.

i voted for frazier.

joe louis was taller than frazier and tyson, but weighed barely 200.

Marciano fought fighters around his size, if not smaller when they started. He never faced a legit 200+ pound HW.

Tyson, he fought bigger fighters, but his best win really is against Spinks for legacy, who started at LH, although a HOF LH, and undefeated, still a LH who put on weight to be 200+. He also burnt out by 23. Although still, much greater than Marciano since fighting fighters 6'3+ and 230+ is hard to do.

Sam Langford might be my choice, although I've seen only the youtube videos of him. His record and articles is the only thing I can really go on and the fact that Dempsey's manager said kindly "no" for him to fight Dempsey.

Jack Johnson wasn't to big and he defeated all the top black fighters and white fighters until he was old and shot.

Louis also fought bigger fighters so I'm surprised he wasn't put on the list.




I'll have to think about it, but Sam is at the top right now.
