    Only an idiot claims that Holyfield is greater fighter than Lewis in HW division. You can say that Holyfield is greater P4P fighter than Lewis because of his CW background. I wouldn't argue that.

        While he did fight near everyone save the Ks, after Big George busts his bubble, his losses suddenly start appearing as his KO% drops to something like 25%. Ya could look it up!
        Lennox Lewis, he never once beat a single opponent who wasn't also beaten by another heavyweight at some point or another. Or beaten any opponent that wasn't beaten as convincingly, or even more convincingly by another heavyweight.
        Every opponent Lewis beat, was already beaten just as convincingly, or sometimes even more convincingly before and / or after losing to Lennox Lewis by another heavyweight. And some of those heavyweights that beat Lennox Lewis's opponents just as convincingly or more convincingly, didn't even have all time great heavyweight records themselves.



        The absolute best opponents Lewis beat, such as Evander Holyfield and Mike Tyson, were already way past their best and were pretty much shot / washed upm

                -better single win
                -4 times World champion
                -Didn’t hold paper belts like Lewis
                -Didn’t get KOED by 1 sucker punch in his prime unlike Lennox Lewis
                -fough actually opponents at their Best
                -fough Bowe better version of Tyson

                This is why for me Evander the real deal ranks higher than Lennox Lewis

                You are wrong.

                    Interesting. I wonder why foreman don't rate evrander higher? But foreman does rate evrander top ten so that's ok

                      Bowe had a better argument for winning the 2nd Holyfield fight than Holyfield had in either of the 2 Lewis fights.
