Teddy Atlas' top ten heavyweights of all time, do you agree? If not, what is your list??

It's an ok list. No Holyfield or Iron Mike and Larry so low is a little off-putting imo.

1. Ali
2. Louis
3. Holmes
4. Holy
5. Lewis
6. Foreman
7. Frazier
8. Johnson
9. Iron Mike
10. Wlad

I need to see Usyk in a do or die, Holmes-Norton or Bowe-Holy I firefight. I understand he's done outstandingly well, but I can't place him above Liston or Wlad quite yet.

 

Don’t understand the old timers for instance Louis being so high on lists. Holmes and Ali were as good of boxers as the young Billy Conn in every way except that they had 3 inches in height and 40 pounds of muscle and 8 inches of reach on him. Plus truth be told the young Ali was much faster and especially on his feet. They were in a category way above Conn as heavyweights. They would have boxed Louis ears off.

 

I think a lot posters would rate Joe Louis lower in fantasy matchups. His rating comes from his achievements in his own era.
