Heavyweight rankings since Muhammad Ali

You can pick apart anyone's resume though. It's very easy to do.

 

1 Larry Holmes - excessively massive reign
2 Lennox Lewis - solid ATG reign
3 Foreman - 2 reigns combine to make it big
4 Tyson -1 amazing early reign before sliding into difficulties
5 Holy - short but excellent reign
6 Wlad - long reign with help from another fighter. without other fighter, short reigns of more than 1 title
7 Bowe -short reign, more than 1 title
8 AJ - short reign partial unification
11 Fury - unified title, sadly just one win of note so far.
9 Vitali - poor reigns of some length, but really just a fireman for wlad's stepping up towards world too often
10.wilder - awful reign, short so far

but note that 8, 9 and 11 can rise potentially.

 

Like I did with Holmes resumes. The fighters he beat were easily weaker then the fighters Lewis beat. Case close.

 

Lennox beat Holyfield and Klitschko. That's it. He also got iced by Rahman and McCall in his prime.

 

He’s so underrated it’s criminal.

 

1. Holyfield
2. Lewis
3. Wlad Klitschko
4. Tyson
5. Holmes
6. Bowe
7. Vitali Klitsckho
8. Foreman
9. Joshua (leads current pack on resume)
10. Moorer

 

Fury is clearly the best of the current bunch

Eleven year undefeated unified super champion VLAD in his backyard
Undefeated ko artist wbc champ wilder in his backyard

Those two wins alone trump anything anyone has done since Lewis. And fury is only thirty or something

 

He easily beat a prime tua who would beat any fighters Holmes beat.

 

Hahaha, prime Tua lost to Chris Byrd. He was 5'10 with a 70" reach. Lennox had 7" of height and 14" of reach on Tua.

 

I feel Tucker was very good when Tyson beat him.

 

Here's Lewis's career in review,

Tua fought like Miller in that fight except he had far more power, both men didn`t/don`t cut the ring off.

 

Tua trained for that fight by losing weight in an ice bath instead of exercising.

 

He was getting slapped all over the place by Vitali and despite finishing strong only got saved by Vitali getting cut, Lewis was awful in that bout.

 

01. Lennox Lewis
02. Larry Holmes
03. Wladimir Klitschko
04. Mike Tyson
05. Evander Holyfield
06. Vitali Klitschko
07. Riddick Bowe

Bowe and Vitali could switch, so could Mike and Holy. Not counting Foreman since so much of his accomplishments were when Ali was still around. Can't rank Joshua, Wilder and Fury until they fight each other. Don't think anyone else has accomplished enough to be ranked.

 

You say "getting cut" like it was the ref or something, Lewis was the one who cut him which forced the fight to be stopped. Fact he was able to do that at 37 in career worst shape should tell you something.
