Dodger's 30 greatest heavyweights of all time

[Easy-E]

an absurd list, having vitali at 19!!!!!!
every time he has stepped up thus far, he has lost, he hasent come close to proving himself a true champ yet, if hes 19, you need to have the man who dominated him, byrd on the list. also, berbick and rahman???? do you really think somoeone should be considered top 30 all time based on one fight?

So, I guess never really saw this fight.

I think Michael Dokes should be somewhere in the 25-30 range.

why do so many people put Rocky and lennox lewis so high its ******

Ali
Louis
Foreman
Holmes
Johnson

are the top 5 heavyweight and should always be there period

and btw id put foreman at 2 if he didnt lose to jimmy

Why is Marciano on the list at all?Was he a heavyweight?No unless being 180 pounds makes you heavyweight.Did Marciano fight heavyweights?No unless fighter other 180 or so pounds makes you a heavyweight.The man isnt a top 100 heavyweight because he isnt a heavyweight.Dempsey isn't or Jack Johnson.
here is my list in no particular order.
Ali
Foreman
Frazier
Lewis
Bowe
Holmes
Norton
Lyle
Holyfield
Hmmm there are other fighters like Tua or Vitali that could be up there but please peaople learn what a heavyweight is.180=cruiserweight beating other 180 pound guys meant you beat other cruiserweights.It is like putting Roy Jonse on the list because he beat some light heavyweights and then beat Ruiz.

u cant say that cause the weight limits were diff back then, Rocky would lsoe to just about everyone in the top 10 all time list with ease he is an overrated joke

[tommyhearns804]

Of course Marciano is a joke.But the weight thing is valid.How many times has he beed a 220 pound world class fighter?How many times has he even fought a 220 pound world class fighter?0 times is how many so no sane person could go well since he never lost fighting 180 pound fighters who were mostly bums or just old or old and bums then he could beat guys like Bowe or Lewis.
Only a white guy would try argue that he could.Maricano isn't a top anything.

[scap]

I think when people rate the all time heavyweights they need to rate them in terms of p4p, just like todays p4p rankings.

The division is totally different today therefore you need to ask yourself p4p who were the best heavyweights ever rather than thinking Lennox Lewis was 245 and Ezzard Charles was under 200.

Guys like Walcott and Charles are undervalued, they were p4p much better fighters than a Lennox Lewis was therfore they have to be rated higher, at least in my book.

Top 15 in order:
Ali, Louis, Foreman, Holmes, Frazier, Liston, Marciano, Johnson,
Lewis, Charles, Dempsey, Schmeling, Holyfield, Jeffries, Tunney

god damn stop putting lennox lewis in the heavyweight top 10 list he sucks!!!
