Rahman certainly wasn't anything special, but he's far from the worst HW champ
    Rahmans level against Wladimir was worse than club level boxers.

        He was old and pretty washed up at that point

          Rahman's overall resume isn't that bad.
          McCall's ''reign'' was even more embarrassing.

          The 80's were littered with garbage ''champs''
          Almost too many to mention.
          Mike Weaver, Leon Spinks, John Tate, Bonercrusher, Page......

          Then there were the Bruce Seldon's, Herbe Hide's and Frank Bruno's of the sport.

          I guess most divs have one and done chumps.

            Oliver McCall has one of the greatest chins in history and a hell of a punch. Guy was Tyson's sparring partner for years. Beat Lennox Lewis. He don't belong on this list
            Joseph Parker's an underrachiever, but he's better than Rahman
            Tony Tucker was the only guy to give the peak version of Tyson a fight. Started his career like 35-0. Beat guys like Jimmy Young & Buster Douglas
            Frank Bruno was limited, but he was better than Rahman. He gave young Lennox a real fight.

              Frank Bruno wasn't bad at all. He just didn't have a chin. Joseph Parker has decent fundamentals. Oliver McCall wasn't as bad

                He looked just as terrible vs Holyfield.

                  We have to remember at the pure form boxing is just a fight. You don't have to be technically great to knock someone's head off. Rahman might look technically bad but he had enough attributes to beat some really good opponents.

He has no fighting ability what so ever. His arm length was measured to be the same as either Lewis or Wladimir, I forget which one.. But he doesn't know how to use it since he's so poorly coordinated and has no fundamental footwork.

                    People rag on Tyson losing to douglas. Douglas looks like a hall of famer compared to Rahman.
                    You just start watching or something? Or is this a thinly veiled attempt at a Lennox diss thread?

                      I'm not talking about technique. He's terrible at fighting period. Look at any rounds he fought.
