    thing is tyson also got beat quite a few times badly. Lewis at least avenged his losses and was consistent throughout his career.

    So for me, longevity counts.

      Sugar ray Robinson was beat numerous times doesn't mean joe calzaghe was better than him

      So your argument formula = Rocky Marciano >>>> Muhammad Ali

          damnz, I meant Holmes and Lewis, not Tyson.


          Tyson was amazing but the light that burns twice as bright burns half as long, and you did burn so very very brightly, Mike.

          Obviously not voting for the giant clown brothers who lose to MWs or retired old fatboys and then run away from rematches in terror.

                  Holmes is top five heavyweight, maybe top three. Lewis is top seven on my list.

                  Do the math.

                    lennox is the best in my opinion

                    lennox is the best...he made voluntary defences vs golota, tyson, vitali klitschko, briggs, bruno, phil jackson(35-1 at time), holyfield(twice unification), hasim rahman, botha...those are just his voluntaries
