Anyone here rank Lennox Lewis top 3 all time at HWT ?

Top 3 is a possibility. Head to head a motivated Lewis can beat any of them. This fact may not fulfill the wishes of the luddites but tis the truth.

 

is hard for lennox to surpass marciano at #3 in the modern era

 

I currently have him at 8...but I could concievably envision him as high as 5 on my list...so in that regard #3 really isn't that much out of the question...Between 3 and 15 there are really alot of variables (h2h, accomplishment, level of opposition etc.), and much depends on how that translates in different individuals minds (and yes sometimes our hearts can supercede our minds if we are not cautious). Having lewis as #3 seems slightly high to me, but not outrageously so.

 

That is a good list! Mine is almost the same:
1. Ali
2. Holmes
3. Tyson
4. Frazier
5. Liston
6. Foreman
7. Louis
8. Marciano
9. Holyfield
10: Lewis

All the best
The predator

 

Yeah, I'll buy that immediate top-3 list, but "Lewis , Johnson & Foreman" round out the top-6 without a doubt.... Christ, even Holy gets a top-notch slot, as well........ Peace......

WTF? You rate dudes like "Tyson & Frazier" over George Foreman.?.? NO WAY!!! And, no sign of Jack Johnson anywhere.... Hmmmmmm....:admin

MR.BILL

 

There is no way Liston should be in the Top 10. His accomplishments are very weak.

1)Louis
2)Marciano
3)Ali
4)Lewis
5)Holmes
6)Johnson
7)Dempsey
8)Foreman
9)Tyson
10)Frazier

 

Well, Sonny Liston was a lousy champion, but he was a great overall heavyweight..... Based on that, I cut the dead dude some slack.......:rasta

#1

 

I have him at #3 or #4.

 

In the top 3? Possible.

But I would actually place him a little lower.

 

I do too, with Holmes in my case.

 

I don't see why rating him over Holmes would be considered so profane. I rate him higher than Holmes, though not in the Top 3.
