    Usyk would be the so called greatest southpaw heavyweight champion as well as the recognized greatest cruiserweight of all time.

    Lewis Is better than the whole list, but from 2000 till 2003 he beat and grant, botha, tua, old tyson, lost to rahman and won against rahman and escaped against vitali.
    You are right, thats more than vitali, aj and fury.

    1. Wlad
    2. Lewis
    3. Vitali
    4. Fury
    5. Joshua (more depth than usyk at heavy)
    6. Usyk

    Everyone I put on my list has been at one point the consensus best LHW in the world.

    If Bivol beats Beterbiev he shoots up that list, if he loses then it exposed his paper belt a bit.

    Put up your top ten, seriously.

    I can't imagine Jones being ahead of Tarver in a "since 2000" list.

    Dude lists Adonis Stevenson, Jean Pascal, Chad Dawson, Tarver, Glen Johnson, and BHop are top LHW.

    I went to have a right good laugh at your list, but then realised you didn't even make one.

    You probably don't even know the names of every LHW who's been the number 1 in the division since 2000

    I don't think so. Wlad is a superior boxer in every aspect of the craft. The only thing Vitali has on Wlad is his chin and that's it.

    RJJ in 2000-2003 is miles better than anyone who's come after him imo.

    If Beterbiev smokes Bivol that might well change.

    Tarver ain't moving any higher up though.

    Maybe.. that's why they're usually side by side in rankings.. but Vitali usually above by default in my rankings.

    So you're going on the eye test. Tarver obviously did more and got the best of Jones, so he couldn't have been much worse.

    Usyk is far greater and better than Haye.

    Both at Cruiser and Heavyweight.
