      I know it isn't necessarily a popular opinion, but I have Foreman over Ali.

      I honestly believe that Ali cheated in his victory over Foreman. I also consider Ali's victory came mostly before they stepped into the ring.
      If you just dropped the best version of both fighters into a fair ring and let them fight? Foreman wins.

      Plus the way Foreman crushed Frazier was otherworldly.

      It will always be Foreman>Ali>Frazier for mine.

      Since that era, and knowing how hard it is to compare eras, it is Lewis at the top of the heap for me.

        This is among the dumbest posts I've ever seen on NSB and that says a helluva lot.

          Ali, Louis, Foreman, Frazier, Wladimir, Lennox, Marciano, Tyson, Holyfield, Vitali, Holmes.

              What part do you disagree with? You don't think the ropes were loosened? You don't think Ali staged brilliant psychological games before the fight? Or you don't think Foreman would win without the first two factors.

              Frankly, your post just stinks like you are a cunt or something.

                Hard to say, as with some of the older guys you are relaying on the stories from the historians.

                In no particular order :

                Ali
                Louis
                Johnson
                Lewis
                Foreman
                Fraizer
                Holmes
                Dempsey
                Marciano
                Liston
