I'd only have Ali as a decided favorite over him. Louis, Liston, Foreman and Holmes are pretty debatable affairs. I'd have the likes of Holyfield, Fury, Tyson and Bowe as underdogs personally.
I agree Ali is the only clear favorite. I forgot about Louis. Real 50-50. In a one-off I’ll go for Lewis.
I think Lewis at his peak is as good as it gets. He was safety first alot, but also could finish you quick, had big power, great punch selection, punched in combination... Good luck, even if you're Ali or Holmes or whoever.
Well I didnt have to scroll down very far, I agree with all of your picks but would have added a 21 year old Tyson.
Ali , Holmes, Fury, and possibly Vitali but only if it were a 6 round fight. Vitali is one of my favorite fighters but I think he'd get stopped on cuts again in a 10 or 12 round fight.
Leave the excuses home but Hassim Rahman and Oliver McCall did just that. To his credit though, Lennox Lewis avenged those two losses on his record.
Lewis is great champion fighter. & can be knocked with 1 big punch. & also never did win with any great all time fighter. only down the hill side Real Deal Holyfield & more worse " washed ' shot " Iron Tyson Mike. so his not been huge test tested with the real great all time boxers. & he has record of most washed old or medium level not top class fighters. so I think it difficult to say who he can win with of real great prime chanpion level . he likely scene is win with some or lose with some.
