Both are top 2 greatest resumes in heavyweight history.

Ali. He was never knocked out in his prime against other hall of famers. In fact was never knocked out at all in his prime, where as Lennox was.... I like Lennox, he's an all time great Heavywgt champion.

I respect your opinion, remember the difference between these two, favors Ali. And that difference is STAMINA & CHIN .

Lennox my favorite heavyweight of all times but Ali Resume is full of Boxing ICONS: George Foreman, Joe Frazier, Ken Norton, Floyd Patterson, Sonny Liston, Archie Moore...

That is IMPOSSIBLE to match!

All things considered Ali has the better record in my opinion and I don't think Lewis has the 2nd best record either. Ali had almost 4 years of his young prime unfairly taken from him by the government. Ali was never knocked out or badly beaten in his prime. Lewis was knocked out twice in the middle of his prime by two very ordinary heavyweights. The fact that he avenged both of those loses doesn't mean they didn't happen. They did happen and it's a black mark on Lewis's record. I think Louis and Marciano also had better records than Lewis even if they were too long ago and two small for your taste. Compare Louis's 25 successful heavyweight world title defenses in a row to Lewis's record. You have really been pushing Lewis hard lately as the best heavyweight of all time but not many non English fans seem to agree with you. I am not saying Lewis wasn't a great heavyweight but I am saying I don't think he was the 1st or 2nd greatest of all time.

Lewis lost to McCall and Rahman, his wins over past prime McCall and past prime Rahman in rematches don't matter. He beat completely finished Tyson and drew with well past his best Holyfield, before losing the rematch 115-113 to even more past his best Holyfield. Also lost in his prime to past prime Mercer 98-92, before a no-contest vs Vitali. Also, why did he duck Butterbean?

Lewis even ducked Bowe and tried to make it seem like it was the other way around to fool the public. Lewis also lost 44 times in sparring and he was trying his very best, and lost to Rahman when they had that scrap in the studio. Rahman threw Lewis around like an empty suit. Ali has the much better resume. Cash in
