1. Larry Holmes
2. George Foreman

Everything else is up for discussion.

The premier division in boxing doe. Absolutely trash, this is what people get excited about?

[Southpaw16]

This is subjective, I think it’s a pretty good list, but Rid**** Bowe shouldn’t be ahead of Lennox. That part isn’t subjective, Bowe flagrantly ducked Lennox.

People don't read. He posted a subjective list "based on their single peak year and not their career body of work".

Lennox is the GOAT

Yep..he had a couple of bad nights..but with his size, his best is THE best vs anyone at their best. Why did he pick 2002? A shell of Mike Tyson? How about Nov 99 thru Nov 20---Beat Holyfield (again, just this time on the cards), Michael Grant (The Next Big Thing), Botha, and Tua.
Bowe in 92--Holyfield, Coetzer, conroy nelson and Elijah Tillery. come on Fitz...
Holmes in 82---Tex Cobb and Gerry Cooney...? Two lovable punching bags..
BTW...still waiting on a win on Wilder's ledger worth mentioning...

As Mondays go, this one was pretty big. Not only was it the 35th incarnation of a holiday honoring a leader taken far too soon from his calling, but it also marked another anniversary of the birth of a man to whom fans my age and older give credit for planting the seeds for a lifelong love of the sport.

Fury definitely has the physical ability. But he needs to fill his resume and stay mentally well. If he can last as long as Wlad did and rack up 2-3 quality wins a year going forward he has a shot of being the best ever. That's a big if though.

Sorry ass list. Lol Tyson Fury ahead of legends?

Beats an old Wladimir while using peds, beats Wilder - most media members talked **** about his lack of skill, yet that's Fury’s biggest win?
