As the title says, rank a list of your top five/ten heavyweights. Not in terms of achievements, but in terms of how well they'd fare against their fellow heavyweights.
Its hard its depends on styles and other things foreman would struggle vs skilled boxers Ali would struggle vs pressure fighters Lewis Would struggle vs Jabbers
Chronological order: Joe Louis Muhammad Ali Larry Holmes Lennox Lewis Can't pick the last one. It has to be someone from this group: Sonny Liston Joe Frazier George Foreman Evander Holyfield Wladimir Klitschko
although I never liked him, but damn Tyson needs to be in this list along with: Holmes Ali Bowe Lewis Frazier Witherspoon Holyfield
Wow, didnt see this coming , very interesting and slightly left field with the inclusion of Bowe, and even more so Witherspoon !! . Also Frazier at 5 is a ranking I have not seen too many times over the years, equally different from the masses, no room for Louis, I have to admire your conviction matey, but as I live by, you pays your money, and you take your pick. stay safe matey.
George would lose to everyone on your list. I'd replace him with Tyson who, at his best, is going to win some of those.
Rocky Marciano, Vitaly Klitschko, Jack Johnson, Riddick Bowe, Gene Tunney, Mike Tyson, George Foreman, Lennox Lewis, Alexander Usyk, Ike Ibeabuchi.
Fury, Vitali, Wlad, Lennox and for the fifth I have so many candidates that I do not know when to decide, so let it be Muhammad Ali.
