I think Usyk is a HOF, and really the only slam dunk HOFer of the last decade (though I think Fury gets in).

That being said no way should he be above Wlad.

If Vitali is on the list then so must Lewis and he then goes straight to the top of the list, then there would be a bunch of others missed off, surely Haye was better than Byrd? Anyway, I reckon you’d be better having a Gen Y list.

Lamon Brewster points and laughs at you.

Usyk over Lewis on any list is blasphemy. Lewis was the best HW of this era by far.

I think Byrd should be a bit higher. Didn’t particularly enjoy watching him but he was good in his prime. Definitely better than Andy ruiz.

I think if they were both in their primes I would pick wlad to win, but usyk has beaten way better guys, including two guys that beat wlad. I can see why he is higher on the list.

Lewis only fought 7 times in the 2000s. Most of his big fights (Ocasio, Weaver, Biggs, Ruddock, Tucker, Bruno, McCall twice, Butler, Morrison, Akinwande, Golota, Briggs, Holyfield twice, etc) were in the 1990s.

1) Usyk
2) Lewis
3) Vitali K
4) Wlad K

The rest of the list is fine.

If they could put all these guys in a round robin tournament and we had to put money on one fighter only to survive until the end, I would put my money on Vitali. If I could put money on two fighters, the second one would be Lennox. In my book, those two beat everyone - prime for prime.
