    I know Ali had some close ones that could have gone other way or losses to norton but he deserves the number 1 spot because the quality of oppsition, when you fight everyone like a SRL, DLH or Holyfeld has done, you will get some losses, but overall he came out ahead. Its not just that his era was talented but that he faced everyone one, everyone there was available from patterson through holmes and he wasnt afraid of a rematch (something I give lennox credit for as well)

    And people say Lewis isn't ridiculously overrated!!!! :patsch

    ****, this guy is the most overrated fighter by boxing fans today. Only top level HW starched by two second tier HWs and somebody thinks he's better than Ali??? :lol::lol::lol:

    NO, not at all.

    But it would be a great matchup.

    I rate them 1 and 2 as Heavyweights. Lewis would have kicked Ali's ass but Ali beat the better competition by just a hair.
