Can't agree. If 1 out of 3 impartial reporters side with the official winner then I can't call that a robbery without seeing the fight. BTW...
Strangly, i can see Frazier as the bigger challenge, his bobbing, crouching aggression and hooks would unsettle Louis. Like others, I give Shavers...
Billy's clear win over Walcott in 1898 makes this claim seem reasonable.
Very mysterious...
Thank you, you have saved me a lot of typing. I find it bizzare that anybody could come down definitely on either side if only edited and limited...

Love the "Went on a world tour to Europe bit"..!
SO TRUE! And can I whisper Usyk?
I fancy Max, I allways remember Ellis rocking Shavers early and I was a big fan of Earnie...but not one to bet on!
We all (well almost all) accept that heavyweight boxing has moved on from 1898 but... Has there been any top ten better than that of that year?...
That is my top 4, and while I now go Louis, Ali as the top 2, I actually could easily accept Holmes or Lewis ahead of either.
Hadn’t watched this in ages: 1) Loved the way Joe straightened him with the left!, 2) The kidney/back punches were devastating(and illegal) 3)Max...
:D
