    That was a great win and it's possibly the best win on either of their resumes.

    But I'd say Holyfield has more quality overall in his resume than Lewis has.
    I disagree and I think that win is a bit of a paradox, Holys win over Bowe is clearly greater IMO.

      I said Lennox but I'm switching it to Holmes, I forgot how good he was.

        Really? I think Vit is the greater heavyweight.

          Good to see Holmes get appreciated. He and Lennox are both top 5 guys IMO

            No way, man. No way is Lennox Lewis a Top 5 Heavyweight IMO.

            Holmes has an argument. But not Lewis.

                  Clearly Lennox Lewis. Why do people constantly feel the need to "think outside the box"? It's clearly Lewis, with Larry Holmes a not too far off second. Anyone who wastes their vote on any of the other options must be smoking crack.

                      What's so great about Lennox Lewis?? Since people like to downgrade out of prime fights(I've been guilty of it), what's so special about his resume that made him the greatest out of the post Ali era??
