***Best Heavyweights in a slugfest/Brawl***

that is true,and that's why i'm saying lewis cannot be compared with atg swarmers and sluggers when it comes to brawling

Beacuse he can box and brawl when best to?

 

all the guys posted in the first post of this topic would ko lewis if he decides brawl with them.except briggs

 

But Briggs hits the hardest of them all .

 

I agree , i was talking about the guys in the Videos i posted in responce to this guy saying Lewis looses to evryone in the Videos if he trys to brawl but he can still out brawl Briggs.


I think this kid is making it up as he goes along.

 

I realy have no idea how i would do it. When it comes to pure brawling i think there are probably some grade b fighters that i wouldnt even think about.

 

Here is my list

1. Joe Louis
2. Sonny Liston
3. George Foreman
4. Mike Tyson
5. Rocky Marciano
6. Jack Dempsey
7. Joe Frazier
8. Sam Langford
9. Max Baer
10. Riddick Bowe
11. Evander Holyfield
12. Ike Ibeaubuchi
13. David Tua
14. George Godfrey
15. Lennox Lewis- Only based on the fact his style wasn't suited to brawl often, but if engaged, he could out slug anyone.


HM: Ron Lyle, Harry Wills, Gerry Cooney, Razor Ruddock, Bonecrusher Smith, Clarence Henry, Lem Franklin, Cleveland Williams, Earnie Shavers, Tommy Gomez, Elmer Ray, Turkey Thompson, Ray Mercer, Bob Satterfield, Rex Layne, Nino Valdes, Floyd Patterson, Mac Foster, Sam McVea, Luther McCarthy, Buddy Baer, Harry Bobo, Lee Q Murray, Luis Firpo, Tony Galento, Mike DeJohn, Leotis Martin.

 

I like that way of looking at it. Out Slugging rather than out brawling.

 

I think it depends how people interprate the list , some people see a big diffrence between slugging and brawling some see it as similar stylisticly. It depends what they fidn superiour slugging or brawling.

 

A few others who might be worthy of consideration:

Sam Langford, John L Sullivan, Bob Fitzsimmons, Jack Johnson (Sounds silly, but if they come in to brawl, he tied them up and overpowered them), James Jeffries, Stanley Ketchell (though maybe not at heavyweight), Peter Goddard,
Joe Choynski, Tom Sharkey.
