    For me -- in no particular order -- would be:

    Dempsey
    Louis
    Marciano
    Tyson

    For me, Frazier. I see some calls for Ali and Lewis. I can distinctly remember some genuinely **** levels of entertainment on account of the two of them. Never, in any way, do I remember a fight going boring on account of Joe Frazier.

    Ask any boxing writer or historian and they will tell you the same thing!

    Klitschko's are good but boring and robotic. Tyson was fast and exciting.

    You'll be living in the past soon too! The Klitschko reign is in it's final stages.

    Riddick Bowe imo, he had so many memorable fights.

    Holy 1 was an ATG fight, Holy 2 is slightly overshadowed by Fan-Man but it was also great fight & Holy 3 was brutal. The 2 Golata fights were crazy & so was Tillery 1.

    His fights with Cooper, Coetzer, Gonzalez & Hide are all fun to watch.

    A career that bat**** crazy has to be entertaining. :lol: I really would've liked to have had Tyson/Bowe around '96. It could've been the single most insane fight in history. It had all the ingredients.

    The Klitschkos are the two greatest heavyweights of all time. They would dominate any era.

    Lennox lewis for me. he gave us everything in there... good boxing skills, great fights, great KO's of the very best around. he had a couple of boring ones, but so does everybody.

    i'd prefer to watch Wladimir to Ali. and that's saying something. take away his goings on and personality out of the ring, you have one boring as **** fighter in the ring. the man can lull me to sleep most of the time.
