    In no order

    Dempsey
    Marciano
    Louis
    Lewis
    Ali
    Tyson
    Holmes
    Liston
    Johnson
    Foreman

    Other greats left out: Joe Frazier, Evander Holyfield, Gene Tunney,
    Top 15 would most likely have all these fighters in it.

      Like I said, he gets enough respect on these forums, IMO, and I do give him respect as well. He's on pretty much everyone's top 10 lists (some even top 5), and he's on my list as well. So again, what are you babbling about?

          Well, I wouldn't go that far. I will admit that when he's not talking about heavyweights, he sounds pretty knowledgable.

              Bro, Lennox Lewis has to be on this list. Probably switch out Tyson for Lennox. Other than that, I agree. I think Holyfield could make top 10 as well but it would be hard to think who he could replace on that list.

                I know who are the 5 best heavyweights, in head to head terms ok. I don't have to hype a certain guy to make sure he does well against other heavyweights. I know who is gonna give larry holmes hell and i also know who's ears larry is gonna box off.

                I know that liston would walk through frazier and marciano without any sweat at all. Frazier is overrated, he purposely dodged all the big punchers and thought foreman was a skilless goon, look what happened.

                    In no specifc order:

                    ali
                    holmes
                    foreman
                    liston
                    lewis

                    Rocky was a bully that fought grandfathers and small guys. Joe Frazier is lucky he didnt fight the amount of big punchers that norton did, it would end with the same result. Joe Louis had a ****ty chin, nuff said. I dont want to hear about any excuses, once he takes an overhand right, hes goin to sleep. I cant imagine jack johnson grappling foreman and then smiling on camera. Can you imagine jack dempsey trying to knock ali out.

                    Tyson has my number 6 spot by the way, he would maul jack's ****ty chin. He would blast frazier in one round and he would clock louis's fine wine glass with an overhand right.

                      I suppose that list isn't too bad. Here's mine.

                      1) Ali
                      2) Liston
                      3) Foreman
                      4) Tyson
                      5) Louis

                      Holmes is number 6. He could be number five, but he was suceptible to right hands too much, so I suppose Louis' right would make the difference.
