    If you had to rank these four, 1st, 2nd and 3rd
    who would you rank and why? and which one would you leave out?

    Lennox Lewis
    Evander Holyfield
    Mike Tyson
    Riddick Bowe

    No disrespect to you my friend, but this thread creeps up once every three months without fail.

    Lewis
    Tyson
    Holyfield



    The one people tend to argue about is Tyson/Holyfield. You can understand why.

    You could argue each as number one.
    1) Bowe, peak to peak topped Holy and the has best record.(one loss)
    1) Holy, passed prime matched Lewis, dominated Tyson, far better resumee than Bowe.
    1) Lewis, best results v others and Bowe ducked him.
    1) Tyson, at his short peak, destroys the lot.
    I quit!

    This is the 2nd time we've agreed in the past couple of days Bodhi (the other time being us both thinking the anglo clone guy is a dick). I don't like it.
