    Sullivan reigned for over ten years and has only one loss past his prime. Lewis and tyson have better names on resume i agree . but its arguable with any of the top 10

    But Dance.. He's putting him at 3, that's just crazy imo. We've never even seen the great John L fight tho have we?
    I've got a feeling George is winding us up.

    I get the feleing Foreman just likes to be quoted. He's a publicity hound, and he knows these off-the-wall remarks are splashy and make people wonder and talk more about HIM by inference.

    Lists tend to suck anyway IMHO,...but George's does especially.

    I would like it however, if George would come up with his top 10 list of great defensive boxers....and I'll bet with anyone that he wouldn't mention Jimmy Young at all.

    I'd hope not.

    I doubt he'd belong in a list of top 10 defensive heavyweights

    I know it's early in the morning for me...maybe it is for you too...because you just posted that Jimmy Young didn't belong in a list of the 10 best defensive heavyweights.
