    Holmes is a great pick. Very, VERY well balanced

    Ali my first pick

    Holmes is a deserving 2nd place. But, why is not Louis in the list? did I miss something? :?


    Ps nevermind, I found it

    Holmes is not a great pick. He would never ever beat Muhammad Ali, and he certainly would never beat Joe Louis with those right hand flaws. The only two logical choices are Joe Louis and Muhammad Ali

    Joe Louis. I think he'd win at least 1/3 and probably 2/3 with almost anyone.

    However, overall I rate Ali higher because of (a) his career accomplishments and (b) I think he'd probably win 2/3 against Joe Louis if they fought.

    I have 9, 10 is the max. Can't get them all. I know Louis was a big one though. Things happen...

    I like Michael Grant because Katz said he would be the future paradigm for the heavyweight division... and Katz is a genius in a neck brace.

    Holmes power of recovery is nearly unsurpassed at Heavy. His size and jab alone would keep Louis at bay.

    Why do you think Louis is so certain to beat him?

    I think Ali at least equally matches Holmes recovery powers, if not more but I don't want to stretch it.

    Let me stick with my PHILLY roots, and go with FRAZIER!!!! Foreman and Liston being the only 2 I would pick to beat him in his prime, I would feel comfortable with him fighting anyone else. I know I will be in the minority and possibly alone, but that's cool cause if you ain't PHILLY you aint jack!

    It is not my means of reasoning...it means that I am fine if I stand alone! I don't see why FOTC Frazier would not be Heck for anyone to handle or what would make anyone think he would be an easy out for anyone either. Having said that if you don't agree that's cool! Cause..well I already said it!
