Anyone got the list of ESPN's top ten heavyweights?

[Guest]

I searched the web, I can't find it.

I know Holmes is at 10 and Frazier is at 9, but I can't stay up any longer. Cheers in advance.

.......... anyone?

By ESPN do you mean Bert Sugar's list from the ESPN Classic twelve-hour special, or a list by Dan Rafael, assuming he has one, from ESPN.com?

The first. I want to experience the cigar smoke and laughter/coughing fit combination of that gin-soaked old bastard.

you're welcome, although I think the list he gave on the special was different, with Louis first and Ali second

Hersisia should be top five for sure.


Thanks for the list, Geronimo. I know it's based on achievements and not necessarily what they did to each other, but considering Big George got two wins over Smokin' Joe, then it seems a shame to leave him off. And I really don't get the Marciano bit at all, I really don't.

Anyway, here it is:

1. Jack Dempsey
2. Joe Louis
3. Muhammad Ali
4. Jack Johnson
5. Gene Tunney
6. Rocky Marciano
7. Joe Frazier
8. Larry Holmes
9. Sonny Liston
10. Mike Tyson
