    I actually have no problem taking over the 10th spot for Lewis. Where do you think he belongs?

    Nah, there is no way he had a bigger social impact than Tyson.

    It has to be Foreman . That grillin' machine outweighs all other accomplishments.

    Think Johnson and Ali should be ahead of Dempsey personally

    Definitely mate. Both Ali and Johnson had far more social impact than Dempsey did.

    I would put Joe Louis at #1.
    A black man being America's hero in that day and age speaks for itself.

    Seriously is anyone still against Stem Cell Research??

    J/K. But Foreman Hook there is a reason why people don't take you seriously as a poster, its because you don't really add to any conversation or thread you basically subtract from it. All you have is an agenda. Every post is

    1. Aggrandize George Foreman
    2. Undermine Mike Tyson
    3. Undermine Vitaly and Wladimir Klitschko

    Thats it.

    I don't even think I could have an intelligent conversation if I tried.
