the guy barely weighed 100 pounds and often knocked out men with 20+ pounds on him in street fights, tough man matches, etc....cleaned out 112 and below and beat some good bantamweights too.

Lennox Lewis all-time

[The plunger man]

Lennox lewis record speaks for its self.....it could very well make him arguably the greatest heavyweight of all time...rivalled ali in terms of winning heavyweight titles ....avenged the only two fighters to ever beat him in rematches and was totally robbed with the draw against evander holyfield and he put that wrong to right in the rematch and in his last fight at 38 beat a heavyweight who went on to dominate the division for many years.....ruddock,golota,tua,briggs,vitali klitchcko,holyfield,tyson,grant,botha,bruno,morris on,mercer and beating bowe to become olympic champion.....lennox lewis is number 1 for sure

Good post, definitely reached a level that many other fighters couldn't and still can't. He was undisputed. He was the best bar none. Eubank= Thompson/Calzaghe, Bob = Duran and Froch = Ward. They always were one step away from being the undisputed greatest in their respective divisions.

1: Lennox Lewis (Was probably the last universally recognized heavyweight Champion)..

2: Joe Calzaghe (Done everything asked of him inside of the ring!)

3: Prince Naseem Hamed (Complete enigma, when he attempted to take over America! it was reminiscent as to when the Beatles went to america! his presence sent shock waves through america! it would be very hard for a fighter to have the same sort of effect these days, due to the sport not being the only mainstream combat sport in the world anymore)..

4: Carl Froch (Great record, and has beaten some really good fighters! and only lost to the elite of the elite!)....

5: Nigel Benn (Great offensive fighter, his rise in the middle-weight division was brutal! attracted a different type of boxing fan! the football hooligan, and angry person)...



6: Chris Eubank (Complete enigma, and is quite modest when he speaks about his own abilities! he had way above average power and was probably one the toughness men to ever step inside of the ring!).

These days guys fails at other sports and decide to take up boxing.
