    What HW era was the best?

    i always see discussions on the internet/tv, where people say for example:

    "well, Tyson fought a bunch bums and tomato cans in his prime, he beat nobody"
    "the Klitschko bro's are only the best HW's at present because it is a weak era, they wouldnt have lasted in other era"
    "in the late 80's there was nobody worth note around at HW"

    when was the best era? how can Lennox Lewis be a top 10 of all time if he fought in these weak era's?

      i would say the 70's. Ali, Frazier, Foreman, Norton, Lyle. Lennox can probably beat Ken and Ron, and ill give him a shot at Joe, but Ali and George beat him.

            The 1970's, when Ali was ****ing with Joe Frasier. 90's was a great era as well, Tyson, Holyfield, Bowe, Lewis etc.

              they how can we call todays era weak? what other era besides the 70's (ali, frazier, foreman etc) can we compare todays HW's too? todays heavies are bigger, stronger and faster i.e Haye, wlad.


              the HW div. is getting better, it will improve over the next few years, the klitscchko/haye fight will do the division good

                  Today's heavy weights are very venerable, they make a lot of mistakes in the ring.

                    The 70's. Ali, Frazier, Norton, Holmes, Foreman, Young, Quarry, Lyle, Shavers, etc. No other era had such talent
