jack johnson/joe louis/ali/holyfield/jack dempsey/lennox lewis/larry holmes/foreman/norton/tyson put them from 1 to 10.
Don't have a definitive top 10, but I would say: Ali Louis Holmes Johnson Lewis Foreman Holyfield Dempsey Tyson Norton I take it you plucked 10 random names, because I hope Norton isn't in your top 10 ahead of Frazier/Liston/Marciano/Wills/Jeffries.
1. Muhammad Ali 2. Joe Louis 3. Larry Holmes 4. Rocky Marciano 5. Sonny Liston 6. George Foreman 7. Sam Langford 8. Evander Holyfield 9. Jack Johnson 10. Jack Dempsey
why people putting holyfield in there? he did some great things at HW but lost a lot too, I would not say he was top 10 (at HW).
no i genuinely think norton belongs in there.i didnt just think of 10??????? i thought about what i was doing.lennox lewis is number 3 on my list behind 1.joe louis,2.ali
You would put Norton above the likes of Joe Frazier, Sonny Liston, Rocky Marciano, Jim Jeffries Jersey Joe Walcott, Floyd Patterson, Harry Wills, Max Schmeling, even Ezzard Charles at HW? Norton is no top 10 material, that's for sure. He's falls into the category of 'very good' rather than 'great'.

Well it is not so much about now cause anything he does now is a bonus but even during his main run at HW , I would not say he was top 10. H2H many great HW's beat him in his HW prime. He lost to Bowe, Ruiz and to be honest Lennox Lewis totally outclassed him in their first fight. Top 3 at CW (if not number 1) but at HW - he did great things for a smaller man but he gets beat on by the true great HWs.
Langford's HW credentials are not good enough to put him on a top 10 list in my opinion. I mean on a P4P basis, the number of losses against Wills doesn't affect him and his victories propel him, but at HW, they do count. Otherwise it's a decent list.
norton beat ali and the rematch was a close fight.so if thats not great i dont know my left from right.
