      By body of career work, accomplishments, just overall how they measure up to each other and who would be #1 through 10.

      A lot of people's list will look different or slightly different. But this is for who you consider to be the top 10. I know everyone has different opinions or how they view things so it's interesting. Good List BTW

      So go ahead everyone, give us who you consider the top 10 Heavyweights of All Time in your opinion.

          Gene Tunney was good! Very underrated. And of course Jack Johnson was a polarizing figure back then. SMH I can't believe they fought 45 rounds, WTF, crazy.

              Putting very little thought into it, a few I'd include;
              Frazier
              Ali
              Norton (fk you, I'm not taking him off my list)
              Vitali K.
              Lewis
              Holmes
              Foreman
              Holyfield

              I'm not including the pre-Ali heavies, mostly because I'm less familiar with that era.

                I'm not including the pre-Ali heavies, mostly because I'm less familiar with that era.

                This seems like a pretty sound list. Of course I'd add Wladimir to it.

                While I don't rate him very highly, Mike Tyson prolly deserves a mention, as it's at least debatable.

                And I know you didn't include pre-Ali era, but I'd add Marciano, Joe Louis, Jack Johnson, Dempsey, and Tunney.

                It's too hard for me to actually give all these guys individual rankings, so I just mention them all as being worthy.

                  In no particular order:

                  Lennox
                  Wlad
                  Tyson
                  Ali
                  Holmes
                  Frazier
                  Foreman
                  Vit
                  Louis
                  Holyfield

                  Excluding anyone under 200lbs as they're no longer technically heavyweights.

                  I'd also consider Fury and Bowe over Louis and Frazier if talking H2H.
