    So you keep distancing the goal post you said name another HW and me and others named Ali now you're saying he doesnt count name other :rofl:rofl:rofl

    And nobody is degrading anyone i like Lewis as much as i like Ali if anyone is biased in this discussion is you towards Lewis.

    All four men should be there.

    I was referring more to the fighters Lennox fought who aren't present in that list, but should be, at least in place of some of the heavyweights who were picked in their stead.

    As for Shavers and Foreman neither man was a harder puncher than David Tua who was also in his prime when Lewis fought him. But that's irrelevant to the discussion at hand. They still count as big punchers.

    Patterson and Norton, however, do not.

    Patterson had explosive power, of that there is no debate.

    Watch Norton-Bobick if you think Norton does not have power.

    People can argue about Lewis all they want but the fact is that the man is, without doubt or any scrutiny, for sure in the 20 rated heavyweight champions of all time.

    Of ALL time.

    Nobody can take that away from him.

    Wait. We are going away from the topic.
    The original question is HAS ANY HW CHAMP BEAT MORE BIG PUNCHERS THEN LEWIS.

    Not 'who fought the 2 BIGGEST PUNCHERS'.

    Lewis overall have beaten more big punchers then Ali.

    Yes but Lewis got knocked out twice. Ali never did. Doesn't that matter to you? It's hard to celebrate Lewis as a superior tamer of huge punchers when he got totalled by one punch twice, while Ali ate the best Foreman and co could dish out then just came firing right back. :deal
