Who is the worst lineal HW champion of all time?

Hasim Rahman nb4 poll

Poll is up.

Ten options to choose from.

IMO Sonny Liston doesn't deserve to be in the poll. He cleaned out his division before facing Patterson, then he KO'd Patterson 2 times in a row. (both wins in 1st rounds!!)

Of course he then faced possibly the best Heavyweight of all time and lost, but there's certainly no shame in that. IMO Liston beats all of the names on the poll, most of them soundly.

Though IMO Primo Carnera is the worse out of the list, dude was just a gimmick who won his fights solely due to the mafia promoting him. He wasn't a real fighter.

i voted douglas

not on talent as i feel he was talented but he was such a fat lazy guy and the way he went out against holyfield was pathetic

he's not the worst boxer on the list but he had the worst reign

Come of Freedom? Sonny Liston? Really?

How can you have beef with an ancient fighter is beyond me. He was a great champion.
