Top 10 Heavyweights in my opinion---not my favorites

Joe Louis- how can you not admire his boxing skill, power and mind

Muhammad Ali- i don't want to rank him above louis because louis is great but Ali's gotta be up here somewhere, his footwork handspeed helped him in the beginning of his career and his handspeed power and mind helped later, durable fighter

George Foreman- Great fighter, arguabley stronger then Marciano, big, tough, intimidating,Only once KO'd and by the man above him, not only did he have a great career in the 70's but when he made his comeback he had lost power and gained a great mind which gave him a very successful comeback

Joe Frazier- Quick, defensive, strong brawler, great fighter, he beat ali in there second rematch, great fighter overall, I think he's like if you put Rocky Marciano and Mike Tyson (even though he came later) together you get Joe Frazier, Only reason i rank him above Marciano is because Frazier is like a Marciano upgrade so he's up here

Rocky Marciano-The Brockton Blockbuster, at least the Second strongest figther ever, arguably as strong as foreman, he had great power in both hands and proabably could have fought in fights that went on to 25th rounds, Heart NEARLY unmatched,Stamina you couldn't get around,Power that would hurt you to no end, and his key Relentlessness it doesn't matter if he can win a fight or not because he won't let you, his work ethic was great, his training scedelue was outstanding,only reason i rank him at 5 instead of three is because most of the fighters above him have all fought each other beside Joe Louis, and that kinda put them into place but Marciano he was to old to face clay, and he beat Joe Louis, although still dangerous not in his prime so i feel that even though he is one of the greatest fighters i'll put him at five i may put him at 3 next time depends on where i stand at the time,49-0-0 speaks for itself though,undeafeated and still stands today, 88% KO Rate.

Mike Tyson-in my opinion one of the Greatest fighters ever, or at least had the potential to be, if Cus hadn't died, or tyson had somebody like Cus instead of Don King Tyson would have surpassed all fighters, His strength and speed dead on, you may not agree with me but look at what he did in the 80's, that was before his prime,had he reached his prime with Cus D'mato there's no way anybody would stop him, especially Buster Douglas, I mean in the 80's when someone asked him why he runs at 4am he said because no on else does but in the 90's it was more like "I'll **** you till you love bi*ch" so i mean you can see how he's different. "I'm the best ever,i'm the most ruthless,most brutal, most vicious there's ever been, Lennox is a conquerer,no i'm alexander he's no alexander. I'm the best ever there's never been anyone like me, I'm sonny liston i'm jack dempsey, there's no one like me, there's no one can match me, my style is impetitious, my defense is impregnable and i'm just fericious, i want your heart i'm gunna eat his children"

Jack Dempsey-the manassa mauler *spelling*
Dempsey was a great fighter from the 20's with his strength and speed alone i was impressed, he'd hit guys and break teeth and bone and anything else, he's a feared champion the only man i believe that really always had the upper hand on him was Gene Tunney.

Gene Tunney- a military boxer if i'm not mistaken tunney was strong and always able to beat Dempsey, in there three fights i believe dempsey only won one round, the round with the "Long Count". if it had been started earlier yes Dempsy likely would have won, but when tunney got up, tunney won

Larry Holmes-alittle low on the chart i suppose considering he did have a 48-0 record but he was a good fighter, had one of the best Jabs, style like ali's he just didn't have the brain ali did, he may have even beat tyson had he been able to dance more, but he overall was a good fighter so he does deserve some recognition.

Ezzard Charles- a fighter from the 50's and very formadible, great fighter in general i mean he had the HW belt for awhile and gave Jersey Joe a run for his money, so he was a very good fighter in the 50's and i think deserves to be up here


there ya go

that's much better.

I think thats the only Top 10 Greatest heavy list that hasn't got Ali on it! For shame.

Ali didn't make the Ring Magazine founder and LONGTIME boxing observer Nat Fleischer's list in the 1970's, so it's not the only one that doesn't include Ali.

In fact there was a Ring Magazine poll of their writers back in about 1976 and Ali had barely cracked the top ten on that one, as well (9th).

probably cause they still hated him for the vietnam thing.

Doubt that, since he was being loved and adored by that time already...atleast when The Ring's writers poll was conducted.

what else could it be if he did all that and still barely made the top ten.

[RockyMarcianofan00]

well fighters (alot) do alot and accomplish alot and don't make the top 10
I mean personally to me Ali should be atleast top 5 i mean i don't care wear but you can't deny top 5

A little of it may had to do with how it's tough getting a historical view of a fighter while he's still active, but maybe they simply didn't think he was as good as you, I and others think he was...They're entitled to that opinion, aren't they?

But if you believe so strongly in personal feelings clouding judgement of a fighter, why not take the in the complete opposite direction and I'll ask a rhetorical question...How do we know Ali isn't overrated nowadays because he's the most loved and cherished former athlete still living right now (or felt sorry for because of his condition)?

maybe so, but you still can't take away what he did in the ring.
