            Thinking about it proper now though you still have Marciano, Spinks (Only because of the way he won the title!) Holyfield! There a quite a few that could sit above him!! He might struggle to get into the top ten!!
            how would u put liston , marciano, and spinks above lewis? what have they done to be in that position compared to lewis?

                    Bollocks, why should Foreman and Holyfield be above him?

                        Well Holyfield should be above him because he does have a better resume.

                            Top 10... But not top 5. Ali, Louis, Holmes, Foreman, Holyfield should atleast rank above him.

                                fought better fighters and have better resumes.george won the belt at 45,lennox ran for the hills as soon as he fought somebody his own size with a pulse.and lastly,george would kick his ass

                                    Top 5, easily.

                                    Beat everyone he ever faced and his two losses we lazy losses, he clearly beat better fighters than he lost to and proved he could beat them.

                                    with a resume with names like Bruno, Tyson (old), Holyfield, Ruddock, Grant, Briggs, Golota, Klitschko, Rahman, Tua, Botha, Morrison, Mercer, McCall, Akinwande, Biggs Bowe is the only guy in his era he didn't fight and that was Bowe's fault.

                                    Who is above him? Ali, Louis, Foreman, Holmes IMO. Some people think Tyson had a better legacy than him, I'm not one of those people

                                        Without question. Lennox Lewis was a great champion and deserves such recognition. Top 5, easy
