Them lists from the 90's have depressed me :-( The big 4 of lewis, holyfield, tyson and bowe h2h with the big 4 of ali, frazier, foreman and norton. Now that's a tournament i'd love to see. This era is weak. We have wlad and haye in their prime. We have an old vitali who has lost his pop and then who else? A former cruiserweight who beat fat areola, an olympic gold medalist who has fought nobody since becoming the number 1 contender etc. These are all very good fighters but they are huge levels below the times of ali and lewis.
So you posted this list because you agree with me right? For instance who the **** is Adilson Rodrigues and how long would he last against just about anyone in the current Ring top 10? Carl "The Truth" Williams was a decent boxer but he's no better than Tony Thompson. In fact I'd pick Tony to beat him. Orlin Norris is an early Vitali victim isn't he? Francesco Damiani? :rofl Michael Dokes, Razor Ruddock and "Terrible" Tim Witherspoon are good fighters but no better than the current crop. Buster Douglas shocked the world with his KO of Tyson but what else did he accomplish?
