I also don't think Holmes should be ranked above Ali or Louis, and there might be a couple of others I'd put above him too. George Foreman, very...
That's all true. But look at the fighters he "missed" in 1983-'85. They weren't much better than the "easier path" that he actually took....
Everett Martin was a good gatekeeper type. Actually he was a fattened up middle/LHW and he hung in there were some huge heavyweights.

I'm not sure how Dillian Whyte would know. He made similar claim about Anthony Joshua being "Femi". Funny that he knows so much about them, but...
I have a similar view of it. Lennox might squeeze into my top 10 on a good day, but Holmes will be several places higher. Holmes is greater than...
Disqualified for excessive windmilling.
Yes. I think Holmes was possibly more dominant in both senses. He has such a long winning run that people perhaps are drawn to a few fights where...
