Lennox Lewis is the best heavyweight of any error. Some time may pass before someone surpasses him, but it will eventually happen. Just like in UFC. Georges St Pierre is still the best welterweight, but sooner or later, someone surpasses him. UFC fans are just a bit more mature than boxing fans in this regard.
Boxing = magical?

It has evolved but there is a glitch in this matrix....Fundamentals has digressed in the sport as well; so this argument is multisided
When I watch the 80's and 90's it was clearly the steroids age; everybody in their mother looking like body builders, fighting in wars, and super fast off eye throwing a million shots.......
Although the Sport has evolved in 2018; the best of this time the Floyd's and Manny's have a tough time with some of those guys then, what has happening in those smaller divisions weren't natural; it wasn't natural period, Tyson wasn't natural off eye, holyfield etc
Now the skill and fundamental has digress so much in the sport I cant say them older heavies couldn't deal with the heavies today...Random jobbers from the 80's-90s looked like serious threats and fought to the death then.....IDK I waver all over the place on this issue, so that I cant form a concise opinion on it..... great thread funny as this topic recently crossed my mind watching old fightsComment

Today's heavyweights aren't all that much bigger. They are just a lot fatter on average. You can see the blubber bouncing and rolling off of Fury, Miller, Ortiz and others. Wilder is the exception to the rule and is always lean and in fighting shape. The young George Foreman weighed 212 pounds. The old Foreman weighed 255 pounds. He wasn't bigger, only much fatter.Comment

Just stick to being an annoying idiot and an ass hole because you are so good at that. You suck at mind reading. Brook's uppercut never bothered me and I never said it did. It had no effect on GGG. You are the one with all the turned his legs to jelly BS fantasy not me. Get that straight, dummy.Comment

Boxing expert and pro trainer Breadman Edwards said Joe Louis was the hardest and best puncher in heavyweight history. You should try to educate your pathetically ignorant self and watch film of Louis KOing 265 pounds of muscle Carnera or film of 180 pound Jack Dempsey breaking face bones and knocking out the teeth of 250 pound Willard. You say the great heavyweights of the past were too small to beat today's giant sloppy blubber butts but Breadman says you are wrong.Comment
