Top 10 Heavyweights of all times.

[LacedUp]

Recently, (in historical terms) we have had a variety of a HW ATGs retire or close to it. I know that many of the posters on NSB think that some are the current HWs deserve to be included in the top 10. What do you think?

Here's my take:

1. Muhammad Ali
2. Joe Louis
3. Jack Johnson
4. Jack Dempsey
5. Lennox Lewis
6. George Foreman
7. Larry Holmes
8. Sonny Liston
9. Joe Frazier
10. Gene Tunney (happy to explain that one).

NOTE: I know this subject is old, but I'm very interested to hear what some of you guys think, and if especially the two Klitschko brothers, Mike Tyson, Evander Holyfield and the likes should be in the mix and why.

7.Lennox Lewis
8.Wlad K
9.Floyd Patterson

What makes Wlad > Holmes in your opinion? Their careers are quite similar IMO. Other than Holmes faced better opposition.
