    This thread goes out to my most favourite boxer ever, HASIM RAHMAN.

    Rahman's resume is very stacked. He is without a doubt, the best heavyweight of the last decade. His victory over Lennox Lewis is better than anything on any of today's heavyweights resume. He beat Trevor Berbick, Ross Purrity, Corrie Sanders, outboxed Tua for 10 rounds until he got a bad stoppage, also beat Monte Barrett.

    HASIM RAHMAN, show your love here!!!!!!

    good post he is a solid pro and a really good fighter and a very strong and powerful man he would decimate a guy on the street even when he is in his 80s

    but hes not the best and cannot stick to what he dioes best, very inconsistant. thats why hes a 2 time flash in the pan champion

    Went from a guy who was basically a feared thug on the streets to being the lineal world HW champion - can't knock him for changing his life around, especially the way he did... he only took up the sport at 20.

    Solid Heavyweight and good guy turned his life around. One excellant win on his resume in Lewis! Another really good one in a great fight against Sanders. Somewhat inconsistant and not elite but fought everyone, tough fights with Tua and Holyfield. Was dominated by Lewis in rematch and overmatched against Wlad but was past it in that fight.

    Rahman knocked Lewis out cold, a KO, not a TKO..................

    He's been involved in some highlight reel knockouts. Twice on the receiving end and once on the giving end.

    And the win over Corrie Sanders was entertaining as well.
