    I'm not convinced an Ali could ever beat a Foreman, too small. None of the 3 you name could beat Bruno, have you not seen his muscles? His physique would stop them before the 5th round.

    I think a fighter needs to be at least 6'8 and 275 pounds (in shape) to be considered a true super-heavyweight.

    And I'd have to believe they were really that big, not just some bullsh!t tale-of-the-tape because I know these fighters often lie or get it wrong, add an inch of height here and there, or weigh in with lead weights in their pants.

    I think a SHW is a fighter who on his debut as a pro weighed over 226lb and never scaled less.

    It's a remarkably short list. Vitally Klitchko, Bonecrusher Smith, Primo Carnera, Valuev and ButterBean.

    S0 Fury who only beat a near 40 Wlad, Joshua who as beaten NOBODY, and Foreman who is under 6'4" make your cut for large super heavies

    A few flags in your post, and putting Bowe #1?
